12.00Tip and bets
It is very important for Leicester to break the losing streak now in order to gain confidence in their strength and capabilities. QPR, of course, is in good shape, has noticeably improved in play and results during the season in the Championship. However, QPR is still vulnerable away from home, having won only twice in the championship. We think that due to the home field factor and huge motivation, the Foxes will achieve victory today.
Our prediction is Leicester win with odds of 1.68
Bet on total
It is impossible not to pay attention when choosing a bet on the total at that moment that only in one of the ten previous matches with Leicester were less than three goals scored. The Foxes allow their opponents a lot at their gates, but in the attack there is someone to score, another thing is that the implementation often fails. Nevertheless, taking into account the opponent inferior class, we expect a productive game today.
The second bet is total over 2.5 goals with odds of 1.70
Bet on corners
On their home field, Leicester will obviously try to play first number, will spend a lot of time at the opponent goal. We think the Foxes will confidently win on corner kicks.
Prediction - Leicester win on corners with Asian handicap (-1.5) with odds of 1.67
