Leicester City
WLLLLL ๐ป
Following on from being defeated in their last game at the hands of Chelsea in Premier League action, Leicester City will be hoping to turn things around here.
In that match, Leicester City had 49% possession and 17 attempts on goal with 7 on target. The only player to score for Leicester City was Patson Daka (39'). At the other end, Chelsea had 12 attempts on goal with 6 on target. Ben Chilwell (11'), Kai Havertz (45') and Mateo Kovaฤiฤ (78') scored for Chelsea.
The numbers tell their own story, and Leicester City have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 games, letting opponents get 11 goals in all. In defence, Leicester City just havenโt been too solid at all. It will be interesting to see whether or not that trend can be sustained into this next match.
Coming into this contest, Leicester City have not won away from home in their last 2 matches in the league.
๐ฅ Head to head
Delving into their past head to head meetings stretching back to 09/01/1993 reveals that these fixtures have not been good ones for Brentford. Theyโve not managed to get themselves any victories whatsoever while Leicester City have remained in the ascendancy, winning in 83 per cent of those games played.
A total of 19 goals were shared by the two clubs in this period, with 6 of them from The Bees and 13 netted by The Foxes. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 3.17.
๐ฐ Team News: Brentford
The Brentford manager Thomas Frank doesnโt have any fitness worries to speak of before this clash owing to a fully healthy squad to choose from.
We think that The Bees will possibly go for a 4-3-3 system featuring David Raya, Aaron Hickey, Ethan Pinnock, Ben Mee, Rico Henry, Mathias Jensen, Christian Noergaard, Frank Onyeka, Bryan Mbeumo, Ivan Toney and Yoane Wissa.
๐ Team News: Leicester City
Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers has a number of players out of action. Jonny Evans (Calf Injury), Ryan Bertrand (Knee Surgery) and James Justin (Achilles tendon rupture) are names that wonโt be on the team sheet.
From our viewpoint, The Foxes seem most likely to play in a 4-2-3-1 system, settling for Danny Ward, Ricardo Pereira, Harry Souttar, Daniel Amartey, Timothy Castagne, Nampalys Mendy, K. Dewsbury-Hall, Tete, James Maddison, Harvey Barnes and Kelechi Iheanacho.
๐ก Prediction
We think that Leicester City will need to put in a solid display to register a score against this Brentford team who should win and very possibly keep a clean sheet.
Weโre therefore predicting a highly competitive game with a 1-0 winning score for Brentford at the end of the match.
