Leicester City - West Bromwich Albion predictions

If you’re looking for a relatively safe result bet, a home win at odds of 1.58 is a solid option. That said, West Bromwich Albion may yet be able to pull off a surprise, maybe even in the form of a stalemate.

Though it may not be particularly attractive to punters, this match is at least easy to predict. Anything but a Home Win is probably wishful thinking for The Baggies, whose victory has been priced at a hefty 5.84.

Despite the fact most bookmakers online saw Leicester City as the favourites in their previous $LAGUE matchup, things didn’t go their way. They were already behind on halftime, and couldn’t recover in time to avoid the narrow 1:0 loss.

The away team’s previous Championship outing was a close call from the get-go: betting odds saw the two teams as equally-matched, though WBA did have the support of their home fans. However, they quickly fell behind in the first half and failed to catch up until the bitter end, ultimately recording a 0:1 loss.

The Foxes’s attackers have been seeing a lot of success lately, even in away matches. For instance, they scored 6 times during the course of their previous three away games.

While some teams tend to struggle as visitors, WBA seem to thrive. A quick look at their recent records shows more than 5 total goals in the last 3 away games, indicating rather prolific strikers and a solid goal-scoring form.

The last time these two teams met The Foxes managed to secure a solid away win, although it was rather narrow. They’re still considered the favourites in this matchup, especially now that they have the home-field advantage on their side.

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

Decent offers are in short supply for this match, so our best tip is to risk an HT/FT bet and go for Draw/Home. It’s quite a bold offer to take at odds of 1.58, but the betting value makes it interesting.
