Wednesday 5th December 2018 – Kickoff: 1945hrs
Football – England – Premier League Betting Tips
It looks like being a second emotional match on the trot for Fulham manager Claudio Ranieri as his side line up against another of his former clubs, Leicester City as the betting tips continue at Craven Cottage on Wednesday night.
Despite being (unfairly) dismissed by Leicester City just a few months after he had engineered one of the biggest upsets in footballing history by guiding The Foxes who were 500-1 long-shots to a Premier League title, Ranieri will forever be revered as a Leicester City legend.
Tonight, however, he’ll be looking to bring the downfall of the visitors as Fulham seek all three points here in order to pull themselves off the bottom of the table. The Cottagers slumped to a sixth defeat in seven matches on the weekend when they lost 2-0 at Chelsea, but a 3-2 win over Southampton last time out at Craven Cottage will give Fulham hope.
Fulham possess a home record that stands at 2-1-3 9/15 which includes wins over Burnley and Southampton, and striker Mitrovic (7 goals) along with midfielder Schurrle (5 goals) will be keen to add to their goalscoring tallies tonight.
Leicester City sit in 9th place following a solid 2-0 home win over Watford on the weekend and they’re now just a point behind both Everton and Manchester United as they make their way down to London for this important clash.
The win over Watford extended Leicester’s unbeaten run in the Premier League to five matches which also includes a 1-0 win at Cardiff City and draws against West Ham, Burnley and Brighton. The visitors will be keen to extend their unbeaten run on the road to three matches as they look to improve upon their current away record of 3-1-3 10/11.
Leicester have scored in each of their seven away matches to date, and with striker Jamie Vardy (5 goals) scoring in each of his last two league matches on the trot, the visitors will be confident of taking something out of this encounter.
The betting tips suggest backing both teams to score here.
