Southampton vs Leicester City Predictions

• Both teams have scored in eight of Leicester’s last ten matches
• Southampton have kept a clean sheet in just one of their last 11 games
• The Saints have scored ten goals in their last three Championship outings

Saints have finally found their groove

These two relegated teams are beginning to get their act together and we could be treated to an entertaining encounter at St Mary’s.

Southampton have been particularly impressive having won their last three Championship games under caretaker manager Tonda Eckert and they are taken to just get the better of Leicester City, who are themselves finding some rhythm after a difficult start.

The Saints have scored ten goals in their three most recent Championship appearances and they were superb at Charlton on Saturday when they cut the Addicks to shreds with five goals before half-time.

Tougher test in store for Foxes

A quick turnaround should ensure the Saints are in the groove and while Leicester have won their last two games against Norwich and Stoke, this looks a lot tougher.

The visitors will feel they will be able to find the net against a team who have conceded in all but one of their last 11 games, but it may not be enough for them to claim three more points.

The Saints are taken to come out on top in this one, but the Foxes can more than play their part, so correct-score punters are pointed towards a 3-2 home win.
