Leicester will face Bournemouth in another match from the 30th round in the Premier League.
Leicester vs Bournemouth Predictions and Top Betting Tips
Leicester vs Bournemouth will be an interesting match to see between two struggling teams. Here are our predictions.
Contents
Total Goals Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals
We definitely think that this game will have a high scoreline. Both sides are struggling a lot right now and both teams have to win points desperately in order to remain in the Premier League. Four out of the last five games between the two teams ended with over 2.5 goals too, so there is a lot to expect here.
Both Teams To Score Prediction: Yes
Our second Leicester vs Bournemouth prediction is for both sides to score, which is usually logical when you also expect over 2.5 goals. But both teams here have among the worst defenses in the league and they typically concede multiple times per game. This game could be deciding in the future of both sides this season.
Correct Score Prediction: 2:1 to Leicester
There is a chance that we will see a huge scoreline in this match, perhaps more than 3-4 goals. But we are betting safe here and Leicester seem to be the more balanced team out of the two right now. When we compare the Leicester vs Bournemouth line ups, we see similar problems in both squads ahead of this match.
Leicester vs Bournemouth: Form, Recent Games, and News
Leicester Preview
Until recently, Leicester seemed like they were improving and they were on the verge of turning their season around. They had one of the best attacks but also one of the weakest defenses, which has been the main issue this season. They had a very good period until recently but right now, the team is back to the sinkhole 4 defeats in the last 5 games.
Players to Watch: Harvey Barnes (Leicester)
Leicester have struggled this season and they do not have a player that they can count on to score in most games. Harvey Barnes is their current top scorer in the Premier League and he also scored at least one goal in almost every one of Leicester's home games in recent months.
Bournemouth Preview
Bournemouth had some good moments at the start of the season and we think that the team has the potential to climb much higher in the table this season. As long as they improve that defence. Before the World Cup, they had four defeats in five games and now that football is back, Bournemouth has five defeats in a row and 8 in the last ten games. We do not see how this team can improve on time but if they don't, it will be a one-way ticket to the Championship.
Players to Watch: Philip Billing (Bournemouth)
Few teams have scored less goals than Bournemouth this season and the main reason is that they have very weak attacking players. Their top scorer is Philip Billing, who is a midfielder. And almost all of his goals this season came in away games, so he is the man we rely on for a goal in this match.
