Leicester vs Preston Prediction & Tips
Leicester City have had an inconsistent run of form in recent weeks, recording one win, two draws and two defeats in their last five matches. In their most recent fixture, the team drew 0-0 with Watford FC, a result that does little to help their quest for vital points. With 51 goals scored and 60 conceded, defence has been an area of concern, and their league position, 22nd with 39 points, reflects the team’s struggle to avoid relegation. Manager Andy King will need to motivate his players to give their all in this crucial home fixture.
For their part, Preston North End have had mixed results in their recent matches, securing one win but suffering four defeats in their previous five fixtures. However, in their last match, the team secured a convincing 3-1 victory against Stoke City, which provides them with a morale boost. With 45 goals scored and 49 conceded, their defence has also shown weaknesses. They currently sit 13th in the table with 52 points, which gives them some breathing space, but they must not relax. Manager Paul Heckingbottom will be looking to secure at least a point in this fixture to maintain their distance from the teams at the bottom of the table.
