Team Analysis
Leicester City will be wanting a better result here after a 3-1 Premier League losing effort in their last game against Liverpool.

In that game, Leicester City had 31% possession and 4 shots on goal with 1 on target. The only player to score for Leicester City was Jordan Ayew (6'). For their opponents, Liverpool got 20 attempts at goal with 7 of them on target. Cody Gakpo (45'), Curtis Jones (49') and Mohamed Salah (82') scored for Liverpool.

It’s not been often in recent games that Leicester City have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. In fact, Leicester City have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 6 of their previous 6 clashes, shipping 16 goals on the way. That sort of trend won’t necessarily be sustained into this next game, though.

In the game prior to this, Manchester City drew 1-1 in the Premier League match with Everton.

In that match, Manchester City managed 66% possession and 24 shots on goal with 5 of them on target. The scorer for Manchester City was Bernardo Silva (14'). Everton got 8 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. Iliman Ndiaye (36') scored for Everton.

Looking at their form, and Manchester City have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, conceding 9 goals in total. In defence, Manchester City certainly have room for improvement.

Odds Analysis
We’re thinking that Manchester City have the ability to be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target. At the same time, Leicester City might well find it a difficult task scoring goals of their own, although we do see them being dangerous at times. We reckon that it will be a comfortable 1-3 winning margin for Manchester City at the end of this one.

Pick:Manchester City
