Southampton - Leicester City betting tips and odds

While the scales seem somewhat tipped in the hosts’ favour, the win is anyone’s to take. Statistically speaking, all 3 outcomes to this match are quite possible, making reliable betting predictions hard to come by.

With the betting odds being what they are, this match could still go either way. Still, the fact that Leicester City are generally the weaker team makes this match an uphill battle for them.

The hosts are still reeling from the 5:0 thrashing they received in the last round’s away game. Their opponents Sunderland spent the entire game in the lead, ultimately winning the bout 5:0 despite the fact pre-match predictions and odds were in Southampton’s favour.

With 1.52 betting odds stacked in their favour, Leicester were expected to record an easy home victory in the last round of the Championship. However, they failed to justify the predictions as they fell behind early in the first half and lost 0:1.

The hosts will be looking to cut down on the number of goals they concede. They’ve recorded more than 5 total concessions over the last 3 matches, which is usually a cause for concern.

Friday's match will see both teams at full strength, able to utilize all their players.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.73 odds offered at 10Bet.
