Leicester City vs Liverpool Prediction

Leicester had a rough season after claiming the title last year, and additionally they no longer have their coach who lead them to victory, since he got fired last week. This can be both a blessing and a curse for the team, but for the position that the team is in right now, it doesn't see like it can change a lot. Liverpool on the other hand are very decent this season, but the setbacks they had clearly interrupted their race for the title.

Correct score Prediction: 1-3

Leicester City vs Liverpool Betting Tips and Odds

Liverpool were expected to be better this season, yet their successes are often shadowed by the rookie mistakes they sometimes make on the field. Still, the win against Tottenham with 2-0 proves that there is much more to the team. Leicester on the other hand, are in a very undesirable position right now, being at risk to go back to the Championship league, after being the champions of the Premier League last season. Still, their performance on a home field is not that bad, however, if they want to have any chance against Liverpool, their defense needs to have a wake-up-call.

The odds for a home win are priced at 5.75 with bet365 and betfair. The away win comes at 1.67 with bet365 and 1.62 with William Hill. We expect to see goal on this match since Liverpool are going to push forward towards Leicester's goal the entire time. The odds for "above 2.5 goals" are priced at 1.75 with bet365 and 1.80 with BetFair.
