Stoke City vs Leicester City Predictions

Leicester can punish toothless Stoke

Stoke are unreliable and weak favourites. They have failed to win three of their last four Championship games as favourites, including their last two.

They are eight places above Leicester in the table, but both teams have lost more games than they’ve won this season. The hosts are 14th with 12 wins and 13 losses, while Leicester sit 22nd with ten wins and 14 defeats.

Stoke have not won in six Championship games and have failed to win six of their last seven home matches.

The hosts’ struggles in front of goal are a major concern. Stoke have been unable to find the net in four of their last six Championship matches and have gone goalless in their last three league games.

The home side have looked vulnerable at the back. Stoke have conceded in five of their last seven Championship home games and have failed to keep a clean sheet in four of their last five matches.

Stoke have played four Championship games in a row with fewer than three goals, and a 2-0 away win for Leicester looks the best correct-score option.
