Leicester City Tottenham Hotspur betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match is the away team's victory. Tottenham has a considerably superior squad, is making a better campaign and is in a better phase than Leicester City which, in turn, has only a reasonable squad and has been very irregular in the competition. In addition, Tottenham has acted very well away from home where it has won 5 of the last 6 games while Leicester has won only 1 of the last 4 home matches. Given these factors, we believe that Tottenham will assert the best squad, taking advantage of the good phase that it is going through and conquer the 3 points away from home.
