LiontipsTottenham vs Leicester. Prediction and bets on the English Premier League match
Command Analysis
Current form
Tottenham have failed to earn a single point in their last three rounds. During this period, Spurs suffered defeats from Newcastle and Arsenal with the same score of 1:2 and from Everton away with a score of 2:3. The Londoners' attack is traditionally at its best, but the problems in defense, caused largely by the loss of key players in this line, cannot be solved. In the standings, Anja Postecoglou team occupies 15th place with 24 points. This week, they managed to please their fans with an away victory 3:2 over Hoffenheim in the Europa League, where they have a good chance of finishing in the top 8, given that in the final round they will have a home game against the not very formidable Swedish Elfsborg.
Disqualifications and injuries
Tottenham have a huge loss in their squad, which significantly reduces their rotation options. Johnson, Solanke, Udoji, Odober, Romero, van de Ven, Vicario and Werner will be out due to injuries today. Bissouma and Sarr are questionable.
Interesting trends for betting
- Seven of Tottenham last eight Premier League games have seen at least three goals scored
- Both teams to score have played in five of Spurs' last six Premier League matches
Probable line-up: Kinski - Porro, Dragusin, Davies, Gray - Bergwall, Bentancur, Maddison - Kulusevski, Richarlison, Son.
Current form
Leicester City had a coaching resignation during the season, and great hopes were pinned on Ruud van Nistelrooy, but he clearly does not live up to expectations. The Foxes have lost seven games in a row, and have managed to score only two goals in this period. In the previous Premier League game on their home field, they were unable to do anything against Fulham - a 0:2 defeat. In the league table, Leicester City is in 19th place in the relegation zone with 14 points. At the same time, the team is only two points away from the saving 17th place. The only bright moment in recent times is the victory in the 1/32 of the FA Cup at QPR with a crushing score of 6:2.
Disqualifications and injuries
Fatawu, Pereira, Ndidi and Hermansen will not play today due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Leicester have suffered two defeats in their last two Premier League games, both with the same score of 0-2.
- In the previous 14 matches in the championship, the Foxes have won only one victory
Probable line-up: Stolarczyk - Justin, Fas, Vestergaard, Christiansen - Soumare, Winks - Buonanotte, El Hannous, Mavididi - Vardy.

16.00Tip and bets
The opponents approach the upcoming match against the backdrop of long losing streaks in the Premier League, with significant problems. Tottenham have many losses in their squad, especially in the defense line. Plus, they have to play in a difficult schedule, it is unlikely that the Londoners are ready to confidently win with a difference of several goals today due to their powerful attack. Leicester, of course, is far from more or less optimal form, but given the problems of the opponent, they can avoid a major defeat.
Our prediction is Leicester victory with an Asian handicap (+1.5) at odds of 1.72
Bet on total
Tottenham are trying to compensate for their problems in defense with a powerful attack. In the three previous matches involving Spurs, less than three goals were not scored. It is highly likely that we will see a very productive game today.
The second bet is total over 3.5 goals with odds of 1.90
Betting on yellow cards
It is worth noting that Leicester players have not received more than two warnings in seven of the last nine head-to-head encounters in the Premier League on Tottenham field. Accordingly, we recommend another option for betting on the match.
Prediction - Leicester total yellow cards under 2.5 with odds of 1.73
