Leicester vs West Ham Prediction & Betting tips
Leicester City and West Ham United were hard in the Premier League last weekend. This weekend both teams meet at the King Power Stadium and especially for West Ham United there is still some at stake in Leicester.
Leicester City:
Leicester City will probably have to settle for the ninth place this season as final ranking. The deficit at number eight Everton is four points and Leicester City has played a game less than the club from Liverpool, but the shape of The Foxes has been very bad in recent weeks. In the last four games, the team of Claude Puel did not win one time and therefore The Foxes will in all probability have to be content with a ninth place. With West Ham United home there is a competition scheduled for Leicester City this weekend that can be won, but Arsenal will visit King Power Stadium on Wednesday evening and the match against Tottenham Hotspur will be on the program next weekend at Wembley. Normally Leicester City can not manage to catch many points in the last three games of this season.
Next week The Foxes will travel to London and Leicester City was there last week. There was an away game against Crystal Palace on the program and at Leicester City they do not want to be reminded of that game anymore. The Foxes went down no less than 5-0 at Selhurst Park and that was immediately the biggest defeat of Leicester City this season. The defeat came about against a club that was labeled as a relegation candidate a few weeks ago. Leicester City played more than forty minutes with ten men and had to hit three hits in the last ten minutes of the game, but a 5-0 defeat on Crystal Palace is still very painful.
West Ham United:
At West Ham United they are going to have another exciting week. The Hammers have only three points more than Southampton and so the formation of David Moyes in the coming weeks still has to go. It is a good idea for West Ham United that they have not dismissed Moyes this season, because the rest of the relegation candidates have put their trainers aside this season. At West Ham United, the pressure has also been on for the entire season, but for the time being The Hammers are not falling under that pressure yet. A lot of West Ham United supporters expected more from this season, but if you look at the players group of Moyes realistically, then you also come to the conclusion that West Ham United does well.
In an attacking sense, there are a number of players with individual qualities around The Hammers, but for the rest it is not much that Moyes has at his disposal. In addition, The Hammers also had many injuries this season, but a lot of competitors have been in the same boat in recent months. Last weekend was not won in the Premier League for the fourth time in a row. Dutch champion Manchester City came to visit at the London Stadium and West Ham United was no match against 1-4 against The Citizens. The last five games of West Ham United this season are all against clubs from the left row and that is a big disadvantage that The Hammers have compared to the competition. Next Thursday, West Ham United will play the game against Manchester United and if The Red Devils are already assured of the second place this weekend, that may work in favor of West Ham United. First, The Hammers have to score a result in the King Power Stadium, but West Ham United lost five of the last six away games and played in that other game.
