Leicester’s recent home form has been disappointing, with seven losses in their last ten Premier League matches and a concerning 19 goals conceded in those defeats. In contrast, Chelsea have exceeded expectations this season, with a solid record of four wins from their last nine away games in a highly competitive league.
Leicester’s home games have frequently featured over 2.5 goals, with 17 out of their last 21 matches at home hitting this mark, including all of their last three Premier League games. Chelsea have also seen similar high-scoring trends, with eight of their last 12 away games featuring over 2.5 goals, making a repeat of this expected in their upcoming encounter.
Chelsea have been particularly exciting away from home, with both teams scoring in 17 of their last 21 matches in the second tier, including eight of the last nine. Leicester’s recent form mirrors this, with both teams scoring in 12 of their last 14 home games. This suggests that both sides will likely focus on attacking play in their upcoming match.
Prediction
Leicester 1 – 3 Chelsea. Given Leicester’s ongoing 11-game winless streak in the Premier League and their recent struggles, it seems Chelsea are poised to take the victory.
