Leicester City vs Tottenham Hotspur Predictions
- Spurs have won five of their last seven games across all competitions.
- Leicester have five defeats in their last nine.
- Harry Kane has six goals in eight games since returning from Qatar.
Surging Spurs head to Leicester
Tottenham head to Leicester on Saturday seeking a third straight win after last week’s impressive 1-0 success against Manchester City.
Spurs have reignited their top four push with three victories across their last five league games but they face a Leicester side who have also picked up, with four points from the last six available.
Conte back in the Spurs hot seat
Spurs boss Antonio Conte missed the win over City after undergoing surgery but should be back in the dugout at the King Power Stadium on Saturday.
Keeper Hugo Lloris is missing, however, as he has been ruled out for around six weeks so Fraser Forster will take his place in goal.
Leicester have a few injury issues but they have no fresh concerns after last week’s 4-2 win over Aston Villa, so the Foxes may stick with the same starting side that claimed three points at Villa Park.
Both teams to score has some appeal in this fixture but doesn’t offer a great deal of value, so instead an away win looks the best option for the main bet.
Tottenham have five wins in their last seven games and their two defeats during that run came against the Premier League’s current top two, and they did take a 2-0 lead at Manchester City before slipping to a 4-2 defeat – and then avenging that loss in the reverse fixture soon after.
Leicester have struggled at home and they have just one point from three games in the East Midlands since the action resumed after the World Cup, so a victory for Spurs stands out here.
Foxes should be able to find a way through
Tottenham’s last five victories have all been accompanied by clean sheets but they may not escape with a shut-out on Saturday.
Leicester have scored six goals across their last two Premier League fixtures and average 1.1 goals-per-game at home, despite having the second worst home record in the league, so they should at least be able to get on the scoresheet and a 2-1 win for Tottenham looks a reasonable correct score prediction.
Harry Kane became Tottenham’s all-time leading scorer with his strike against Manchester City last time out and he is comfortably the best option for an anytime goal. Kane has six goals in eight games since his World Cup heartache, and can continue his fine form with an effort at Leicester.
