We take on Willie Kirk’s side at the Joie Stadium on Wednesday, with a 19:00 kick-off screened live on CITY+.
Taylor insists he’s fully aware of Leicester’s ‘dangers and threats’ as he plots victory in midweek.
City have already beaten them in the WSL this season, a 1-0 victory courtesy of a thunderous drive from Chloe Kelly and he’d be delighted with more of the same this time around.
“I don’t expect anything different from what we’ve seen,” said Taylor in his pre-match press conference.
“They have capacity to do a couple of things if they are brave with the pressing. We need to be aware at that.
“The game at the King Power was a positive for us. We should have put them to bed earlier than we did.

“It’s being aware of their dangers and threats.
“This competition doesn’t give you many chances so it’s important that we’re not taking it lightly.”
Victory on Wednesday would put us on maximum nine points from three games in the competition, following wins over Everton and Liverpool.
He’d be very happy with that haul to date and is hopeful it’d put us in pole position to go through to the next phase.
While the winners still automatically progress into the quarter-finals, only two positions remain for the runners-up.
City are currently top, with neighbours United having entered the competition late due to their exit from the Champions League.
“It’s important to get nine points on board gives us a good chance of progressing,” added the boss.
“You don’t know what’s enough but you’d like to think nine points is a good tally. We want to make sure our business is done this end.”
