Leicester vs Cardiff Predictions and Top Betting Tips

Leicester vs Cardiff will be an interesting game and we have high expectations. Here are our predictions.

Team Total Goals Prediction: Leicester Over 1.5

We aren't extremely sure whether Cardiff will score a goal in this match. Leicester seem to be quite strong right now while Cardiff have not yet won a match in the new season. What we know is that Leicester have a good chance here and we expect them to score at least two goals in this fixture. It is a fact that most matches between these teams in recent years have been unders.

Match Result Prediction: Leicester to Win

Leicester got relegated for the first time in a decade and will try to climb back to the Premier League on their first attempt. They already started the campaign with two wins in the first rounds and they definitely look stronger than most sides in the league right now. Cardiff barely escaped relegation last season and we think that they are significantly weaker than Leicester.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-0 to Leicester

When we compare the Leicester vs Cardiff line ups, there is an obvious gap in class between the two teams right now. Leicester are coming from the Premier League and are the most expensive team at 300 million euros. Cardiff, in turn, are worth less than 50 right now. Leicester should have the advantage and we expect a 2-0 win in this game.

Leicester vs Cardiff Team Previews

Leicester Preview

Leicester got relegated a decade later but we think that they will actually return to the Premier League quite quickly. They already showed that in the first few rounds of the Championship and they beat some of the better teams. Leicester will have an advantage over most opponents due to the experience and abundance of high-class players.

Cardiff Preview

Cardiff have been struggling over the last few seasons and they never came very close to getting promoted. We doubt that it will happen this season, either. The team started with a few bad results and there seem to be big problems in their defense line. We think that Cardiff will mostly play well at home but on the road, we do not expect much from them.
