Betting on Leicester
Leicester is in a rather worrying moment that has brought them dangerously close to the relegation places. After struggling at the beginning of the season in the middle of the table, the Foxes register four losses in a row that have them in 15th place with 24 points, just two above Everton who occupies a relegation zone.
Two big problems have come together in this bad streak for Brendan Rodgers’ team. In addition to having their worst goal drought of the championship with only one goal scored, they have conceded up to seven goals.
Precisely that has been Leicester’s main weakness this year, as the 43 goals allowed are the third highest in the Premier League. To make matters worse, at home, things are not getting any better. In 12 games, they have barely won three games and their 12 points are the second worst in the championship in this condition.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Danny Ward; Timothy Castagne, Harry Souttar, Wout Faes, Victor Kristiansen; Youri Tielemans, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall; Tete, James Maddison, Harvey Barnes; Kelechi Iheanacho.
Betting on Chelsea F.C.
Chelsea seems to have awakened from their slumber with two very important victories during last week. The first one was against Leeds and the other against Borussia Dortmund to advance in the Champions League.
Graham Potter’s side had gone four games without a win in the Premiership until last weekend’s victory that left them in tenth place on 34 points, five behind Fulham in Conference League places. Before the aforementioned win and Wednesday’s Champions League victory over Dortmund in the round of 16, Chelsea had only one win in their last nine home league games.
During this period, a great offensive drought was the main reason for the poor results. They scored just nine goals and finishing blanked on four of them. In addition, as visitors, Chelsea have not won away from home for seven games and have a goal difference of -7, scoring just ten goals to 17 conceded.
Possible lineup (3-4-3): Kepa Arrizabalaga; Wesley Fofana, Benoit Badiashile, Kalidou Koulibaly; Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Enzo Fernandez; Mateo Kovacic, Ben Chilwell; Joao Felix, Raheem Sterling, Kai Havertz.
JefeBet Prediction
Chelsea’s victory over Dortmund in the Champions League could represent a turning point for the London side. However, their offensive problems seem not to have been completely fixed and as visitors they are one of the worst teams in front of goal. In fact, in their seven-game winless streak on the road, they have scored just three goals.
For their part, the home team is also going through a rather complicated moment offensively, and if Chelsea has had any quality in the last few days it has been its defensive solidity.
Prediction: Under (LEI 0 – CHE 1).
