Leicester vs Southampton Prediction & Betting Tips (23 April)

Facing their relegation friend, Leicester hopes on the one hand to string together a second successive victory after that gleaned last weekend against West Brom 2-1 and to strike a major blow in the standings by taking a 5-point lead over the competition. The Foxes, despite their good first place, were left with two successive defeats in the Championship against Millwall 1-0 and against promoted Plymouth 1-0 before their recent success. This remains two away defeats and the nuance is important since Vardy and his team are now riding three consecutive victories in their stadium against Birmingham 2-1 and in demonstration against the well-ranked Norwich 3-1 and against West Brom therefore.

On the other side of the median, we find the Southampton Saints who returned like tanks in the title race but they saw their series of four days in a row without defeat and above all three consecutive victories against Coventry 2-1, against Watford 3-2 and without possible dispute against Preston 3-0 ending last weekend with a defeat on the lawn of poorly ranked Cardiff 2-1. 4th with 7 points behind their evening counterpart, the Saints have however not won in three away games including a defeat against the runner-up Ipswich 3-2 and a parity score on the pitch of Blackburn 0- 0 and finally against Cardiff.

Absent for several weeks now due to injury, McAteer (5 league goals) returned to competition last weekend but did not leave the bench. For the rest, the group will be complete with in particular the strong men who are Jamie Vardy who still has canes despite his 37 years (15 goals), Dewsburry-Hall (12 goals, 13 assists) and the former Montpellier Mavididi (12 achievements, 5 assists).Not the slightest minute in the legs this season, Juan Larios will be out this evening (injured) like the Scottish striker Ross Stewart (also long-injured) and the Ivorian Bazunu (international and holder in the bars at the club).

Southampton, on the other hand, will play with the second top scorer in the championship Armstrong (20 goals in the league) and the man currently in form, Scottish international Che Adams (15 goals, 5 goals in his last 6 club matches).
