Betting on Leicester City F.C.
After a rough patch earlier in the season, Leicester appears to be getting back on its feet, with an undefeated record in their last two games and a current standing at 14th place. Despite this progress, they still face a close battle as they are only three points away from the relegation zone.
Leicester comes into this game brimming with confidence following their impressive 2-4 win against Aston Villa in their last outing, where they fought back after trailing twice.
While the three points were certainly a boost, Leicester must continue to improve their defensive performance as they are currently the third team with the highest number of goals allowed, trailing only Bournemouth and Southampton.
Probable Leicester 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 Tottenham Hotspur F.C.
Two crucial victories have breathed new life into Tottenham’s season and put them back in contention for a top four finish, which would secure a spot in the next Champions League. Currently sitting fifth in the standings, just one point behind fourth place, a win in this match would be pivotal to their goals.
The recent league wins include a hard-fought battle against one of the top teams in the league and in Europe, Manchester City, which has undoubtedly boosted their confidence and motivation not only for this game, but also for the rest of the campaign.
Facing a leaky home defense may be to Tottenham’s advantage, as they are the third highest goal-scoring team in the league with 41 goals before this match.
Possible Tottenham lineup (3-4-2-1): Fraser Forster; Davison Sanchez, Eric Dier, Ben Davies; Emerson Royal, Rodrigo Betancur, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Ivan Perišić; Dejan Kulusevski, Heung-min Son; Harry Kane.
JefeBet Prediction
Leicester’s defensive struggles have been well documented and were evident in their last meeting with Tottenham, where they conceded six goals. With Tottenham now high on confidence, it’s likely that Leicester will face another difficult game.
Despite a clean sheet in their last outing, Tottenham’s defense is also far from rock solid and this is unlikely to change with the absence of Argentine defender Cristian Romero, who is suspended, and first-choice goalkeeper Lloris who’s injured.
Given that both offenses are in top form and facing defenses that have shown vulnerability, we expect this to be an exciting game with plenty of goals.
Prediction: Over (LEI 1-2 TOT).
