Leicester City hosts Fulham at the King Power Stadium this Saturday in a high-stakes English Premier League clash.
The Foxes are struggling near the bottom of the table, while Fulham fights for a European spot. With odds favoring Fulham, bettors can make informed decisions for this game.
Leicester City’s Poor Form
Leicester City enters this match in dire form, with six consecutive Premier League losses. They’ve conceded at least two goals in each of these defeats, highlighting defensive weaknesses.
Wednesday’s 2-0 loss to Crystal Palace marked their third straight home game without scoring. Leicester managed only four shots on target from 21 attempts, showing their attacking struggles.
Ruud van Nistelrooy’s side sits 19th in the league, two points from safety. They’ve picked up just nine of their 14 points at home this season.
Their history against Fulham doesn’t help, either. Leicester has lost their last two home matches to Fulham, including a 1-0 defeat in January 2023.
Despite their poor form, Leicester fans will hope they can break their goal drought this weekend.
Fulham’s European Ambitions
Fulham aims to recover from a narrow 3-2 defeat to West Ham, ending their impressive nine-game unbeaten run.
Before Tuesday’s loss, Fulham enjoyed their longest Premier League unbeaten streak in two decades. Currently 10th in the table, they remain within striking distance of the European spots.
Fulham’s away form has been strong, scoring in nine consecutive league matches on the road. This streak shows their attacking threat in hostile environments.
Marco Silva’s team has an excellent record against Leicester, winning six of their 11 Premier League meetings. This 55% win rate is their highest against any team they’ve faced at least 10 times.
Key Players to Watch
Leicester will rely on James Maddison for creativity and goals, especially against Fulham’s leaky defense.
Fulham’s danger men include Alex Iwobi, who scored twice against West Ham, and Antonee Robinson, who delivered two assists.
Match Prediction
Leicester’s defensive struggles make them vulnerable to Fulham’s potent attack. Fulham’s poor defensive record, however, could give Leicester a chance to score.
Despite Leicester’s home advantage, Fulham’s form and confidence make them likely winners. A 2-1 victory for Fulham seems a realistic outcome.
