What bets should you choose for the game?
Command Analysis
Leicester City
EnglandCurrent form
Leicester played their previous Premier League match under new manager Ruud van Nistelrooy. The Foxes played at home against West Ham and won a stunning 3-1. The opponents had a huge territorial advantage in that match, but, unlike Leicester, failed to convert their many chances. The victory allowed them to move four points clear of the relegation zone, although the team is only in 17th place.
Disqualifications and injuries
Midfielder Facundo Buonanotte will not play under the terms of his loan agreement. Fatavu, Pereira and Stolarczyk will not be able to help their team due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Leicester have failed to win in the first half in four of their last five matches
- Both teams have scored in 13 of Leicester previous 15 matches
Probable line-up: Hermansen - Justin, Coady, Vestergaard, Christensen - Soumare, Ndidi - McAteer, Reed, El Hannous - Vardy.
Brighton & Hove Albion
EnglandCurrent form
After two wins in a row, Brighton played two unimpressive matches against far from the most formidable opponents. First, the Seagulls failed to beat Southampton (1:1) at home, and then suffered a 1:3 defeat away from home to Fulham. As a result, Fabian Hürzeler men are only in eighth place, but if they win today, they will immediately rise to fifth place. It should be noted that Brighton is not very stable away from home and has alternated wins and losses over the last five rounds.
Disqualifications and injuries
Injured and out today are Webster, Milner, March, Kadioglu, Hinshelwood. Veltman and Welbeck are questionable.
Interesting trends for betting
- Brighton have won in the first half in three of their last five matches
- Brighton last six Premier League games have featured a goal exchange
Tentative line-up: Verbruggen - Lamptey, van Hecke, Dank, Estupiñan - Baleba, Ayari - Minthe, Rutter, Mitoma - Pedro.

7.10Tip and bets
Leicester showed themselves well in the first match under Ruud van Nistelrooy, there were no problems with the implementation in the game against West Ham. Obviously, the "foxes" will try to build on their success on their home field today. Brighton did not win in the two previous matches, acted very unconvincingly and with such a game that the team showed against Fulham, it will be difficult to count on three points. Taking into account the odds, we recommend a forecast for the home team.
Our prediction is Leicester will not lose at odds of 2.17
Bet on total
Brighton defense has often started to fail, it is no coincidence that in the six previous matches involving the "seagulls" an exchange of goals was recorded. It is unlikely that today game will be ineffective, the opponents have decent attacking potential.
Second bet - both teams to score with odds of 1.67
Bet on corners
It is worth noting that in nine of their last 11 home Premier League games, Leicester have not taken more than four corners. It is unlikely that this statistic will fail today, given the style of play of their opponents.
Prediction: Leicester corners total under 4.5 with odds of 1.51
