Football – England – Premier League Betting Tips
Leicester City continued their impressive form in the elite european competition Champions League during the week when they registered a 1-0 home win over Copenhagen at the King Power Stadium, and The Foxes will be desperate to transform their european form into the Premier League this afternoon.
Leicester City take on mid-table Crystal Palace with the hosts looking to rekindle last season’s heroics and there’s a glimmer of hope as they still remain unbeaten on home soil ahead of today’s clash with Palace. The Foxes hold a home record of 2-2-0 5/1 as they still remain a hard team to beat in their own backyard.
Leicester have beaten Swansea City and Burnley so far along with gaining points against top half opposition in the shape of Arsenal and Southampton, and indeed they’re unbeaten in their last 19 matches at the King Power Stadium.
Crystal Palace’s three-match winning sequence in the Premier League was recently ended by a 1-1 draw at Everton but nevertheless, The Eagles would have been happy with that point but not with last weekend’s 1-0 defeat at home to London rivals West Ham.
Palace had previously strung together three wins on the trot against Middlesbrough, Stoke City and Sunderland although it should be noted that all three of these wins were recorded against bottom half teams in the Premier League.
Palace hold a decent away record of 2-1-1 6/5 on their travels so far this term, but the visitors have registered just two wins from their last 15 matches on the road so they are still vulnerable in these situations.
Pick: Leicester City AH-0.25 @ 1.81 Bet Victor
