13th February 2022 – 17:30, King Power Stadium, Leicester
With a Sunday afternoon clash, Leicester City and West Ham will close the action in the Premier League 25th round. The home side doesn’t enjoy its campaign, and they seek an improvement. On the other hand, the visitors aim for a top-four finish and secure a Champions League place.
Leicester City Preview & Team News
Leicester City will hope to return to winning ways here after a 2:0 Premier League defeat in the last game against Liverpool. The Foxes are far from the continental spots battle, as they sit in 12th place. Brendan Rodgers’s side picked up just a point in the previous three rounds, and they need to improve their game. The matches in which Leicester City participated have often been lively lately, and many goals are expected. During their past half a dozen clashes, both teams scored a total of 20 goals (an average of 3.33 goals per game), of which nine belong to Leicester City. The hosts should also be more confident on the home ground, as they failed to win twice in a row in front of their fans. Regarding the absences, Wesley Fofana (fibula fracture), Jamie Vardy (tendon injury), and Johnny Evans (tendon injury) will not be available for Leicester coach Brendan Rodgers.
West Ham Preview & Team News
West Ham United enters this encounter after beating Watford 1:0 in their previous Premier League match. The Hammers are one of the biggest overachievers, sitting in 4th place and being a point ahead of Arsenal. Throughout their six previous matches, David Moyes’s West Ham United has fired home nine times, yielding them goals scored per game average of 1.5. West Ham has also been pretty good on the road, winning six times in their 12outings. This game is a very important one for the Hammers, as they have a chance to remain in the top-four zone. On the other hand, Angelo Ogbon (cruciate ligament rupture) will not play here.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
Leicester City has been pretty poor recently, and they conceded six times in the last two games. Their confidence is at a low level, and West Ham might capitalize on that. Therefore, we believe the visitors will get back home with all three points.
Goals Market Prediction
The Foxes have been involved in many efficient matches this season, and this one shouldn’t be much different. Their previous six head-to-head clashes went over a 2.5 margin, and we should see at least three in total again.
