Leicester vs West Ham Prediction & Betting tips
There are several games scheduled in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon. One of those matches is the game between Leicester City and West Ham United. Both teams managed to win their competition match against expectations in the previous round. Confidence is therefore good with these two teams.
Leicester City:
Leicester City is at the top of the Premier League after three rounds. Just like last season, Brendan Rodgers’ team gets off the starting blocks. The East Midlands club managed to take the full advantage in the first three league games of this season. Leicester started the season with a 0-3 victory over PhD candidate West Bromwich Albion and defeated Burnley 4-2 a week later at their own King Power Stadium. Leicester then lost 0-2 to Arsenal in the Carabao Cup, but The Foxes recovered well a few days later.
In the game at Manchester City, Leicester City booked an unexpected 2-5 win last weekend. At the Etihad Stadium, Leicester fell 1-0 early on by a hit by former Leicester player Riyad Mahrez. In the final phase of the first half, Jamie Vardy put his team back on the same level with Manchester City from the penalty spot. After the break, The Foxes started running and Leicester managed to pass Man City goalkeeper Ederson four times. With three goals, Vardy was ultimately the big man at Leicester, which will almost certainly go into the international break as the leader in a victory over West Ham United.
West Ham United:
The first three points have been received for David Moyes’ West Ham United since last weekend. West Ham United was visited by Wolverhampton Wanderers in the previous round and against all predictions, The Hammers recorded a 4-0 victory. Jarrod Bowen scored the first two goals at the London Stadium, Sébastian Haller the last and the third was scored by a Wolves player. After defeats against Newcastle United (0-2) and Arsenal (2-1), West Ham United could also use the three points well.
They could not enjoy the victory over Wolverhampton for long at West Ham United. On Wednesday evening, The Hammers lost no less than 4-1 in the Carabao Cup when they visited Everton. At West Ham United, they had no answer to Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin, as he passed West Ham goalie Darren Randolph no less than three times. The cup adventure is therefore over for West Ham United. Chances are that West Ham United, which started with four defenders against Everton, will return to a five-man defense against Leicester City. Moyes was forced to follow the last three games of his team at home because the corona virus had been diagnosed with him. He’s back on the bench against Leicester. Issa Diop and Josh Cullen, like their manager, had to drop the last three games due to corona. The duel with Leicester seems to come too early for this duo, given that they have not yet completed many training sessions.
