Leicester vs Bournemouth Prediction

Leicester Form

Two draws were the best Leicester could manage in the previous three matches. They drew 1-1 with Everton, before finishing even in a 0-0 draw against Walsall. Their most recent match brought a 4-2 defeat against Arsenal. Leicester just have a single home win to show from their efforts in the past six Premier League matches at the King Power Stadium. They also drew three and lost two of these six encounters, in which they scored seven and conceded ten goals.

A top half finish is the dream target for Bournemouth, although retaining their Premier League status has to be the priority.

Bournemouth Form

In their last three matches, Bournemouth lost against Chelsea and Liverpool by 0-1 and 3-0, respectively, and beat Southampton by 3-1. In their last six away matches in the Premier League, Bournemouth won twice, while also recording one draw. They endured three defeats in this run, with a scoreline from these matches saying 11 goals conceded and six scored.

Finishing somewhere in mid-table will probably be satisfactory for Bournemouth, who aim to keep the relegation line at a distance in the Premier League.

Leicester and Bournemouth are firing on all cylinders, when it comes to goals currently, and we could be in for a very entertaining match this coming Saturday.

Leicester are looking at a record of zero wins, three draws and three defeats in the Premier League this season. Bournemouth are looking at two wins, two draws and two defeats in the Premier League.
