LiontipsBrentford vs Leicester City. Prediction and Betting Tips for 2022/23 English Premier League (March 18, 2023).
Command Analysis
Brentford bounced back with style after a 0-1 defeat to Everton on Wednesday - they securing an 2-0 away victory over Southampton. This result strengthened the Bees standings in the top half of the Premier League and kept hopes alive for their first European season.
Brentford's red hot striker Ivan Toney joked that hopefully, the team can catch up with Arsenal, which is a testament to Brentford's positive attitude and morale. After 26 rounds, the Bees have 10 wins and 11 draws, which brought them 41 points. Brentford is currently eighth on the log.
Janelt, Rasmussen, Ajer, Strakosha, and Lewis-Potter will not be able to help their team this weekend.
In the bottom half of the table, Leicester City are fighting for survival. The Foxes are in a dangerous position, outside the relegation zone only on goal difference. The advantage for the team is that they didn't play midweek, and they will need to use any advantage they can get after a shocking run of five straight defeats. This is their worst losing streak since the 2014/15 season.
Questions about Brendan Rodgers' future have been raised throughout the season, and perhaps not without reason, as he has suffered more defeats in the league than in any other campaign in his career. Leicester's seven wins and three draws correspond to 24 points and 16th position in the table.
Tielemans, Kristiansen, Faes, Vestergaard, Justin, and Bertrand will be on the bench.
