Leicester City vs West Bromwich Albion Predictions

• Leicester have failed to win two of their last four Championship home games
• West Brom have avoided defeat in their last seven away league matches
• WBA have drawn five of their last seven away games, three of them by 2-2 scorelines

Leicester lurch towards massive week

Leicester’s late-season wobble could continue on Saturday when they take on play-off chasers West Brom at King Power Stadium.

The Foxes flopped again last Friday when going down 1-0 at relegation-threatened Plymouth to make it two defeats in a row for the former runaway Championship leaders. Enzo Maresca’s side go into this crucial weekend in second place, only a point clear of Leeds and with a tough-looking game in hand to come against Southampton next week,

Maresca must be targeting three points in each game, but with six defeats in their last ten games it is hard to see his team winning both matches.

Baggies seek payback for Hawthorns smash and grab 

And they could fall at the first hurdle if the Baggies, who have not lost any of their last seven away league games, set their stall out for a point.

Carlos Corberan’s side dropped points at home to Sunderland last weekend after top-scorer Brandon Thomas-Asante was sent off. Josh Maja may be available to deputise for the suspended ex-Salford City striker, who has seen Albion win four and draw two of the six league games he has missed this term.

Maja scored WBA’s 89th-minute equaliser when these sides met at The Hawthorns in December with Harry Winks then grabbing Leicester’s 94th-minute winner on a counter-attack that should never have happened. Another close game should be expected with the visitors offering good value to upset the Foxes’ promotion push by taking a point.
