In the last round “Leicester” could not beat Southampton away, being content with only a 1:1 draw result. Thus, the Foxes’ unbeaten run in the national championship reached the mark of three matches in a row. And to a draw with Soton, Brendan Rogers’ charges dealt with West Bromwich (3:0) and Crystal Palace (2:1). Leicester earned both successful results just at King Power. In general, in terms of playing at the home arena, the Foxes are one of the most uncompromising teams in the championship. In 17 home matches, they played only once in their home walls in a draw, gaining nine wins and losing seven matches. This is the sixth highest result in the Premier League in a home game. In the standings, Brendan Rogers’ charges continue to hold the third place. Leicester are now four points behind the second Manchester United, two points ahead of Chelsea and five behind West Ham. However, the Foxes have far from guaranteed a place in the Champions League, as the team’s finish is not easy. After Newcastle, they will still have to play away against Manchester United and Chelsea and take Tottenham in the final round. So in this regard, the duel with the “magpies” can be considered the easiest. Due to injuries, defenders James Justin, Harvey Barnes, midfielder Wes Morgan will miss the next fight. Doubtful is Johnny Evans.
The six-time Cup winner and three-time French champion last won the country’s main football tournament exactly 10 years ago. This season, the team played on several fronts, while becoming the only representative of the country in the Europa League at the playoff stage. It is worth noting that at this stage the team performed unsuccessfully. They lost twice to Ajax with a score of 1:2. In the French Cup, the “red-blues” only reached the stage of the 1/8 finals, where they could not cope with PSG (0:3). After 35 rounds of the current championship of the major league of France, the Dogi won 22 victories and ten draws, which brought 76 points and the first position. The gap from the closest pursuer is only one point. After a draw with Montpellier (1:1), guests defeated Lyon (3:2) and Nice (2:0), for which we made a prediction. According to the leader’s representatives, everyone in the team is healthy and ready to enter the field. So, what is the soccer bet prediction for today?
