Leicester v Huddersfield Betting Tips – Premier League, 22nd September 3.00pm

The Foxes got torn to shreds by Bournemouth last weekend and that is back to back defeats which they have suffered now. Another one here and the pressure will be on boss Claude Puel. Huddersfield though has been having a really difficult time of things this season having only picked up two points from their efforts. Read our predictions for Leicester v Huddersfield.

Leicester News and Form

Leicester are just treading that fine line between a dip in form and a slump. They are on back to back defeats at the moment and across the course of the season, they have only managed the one clean sheet. However, given the limited threat of the Terriers, it could be a good time to back the foxes to get one. Leicester to win to nil is at 11/8 odds* (Betting Odds were taken from September 18th, 2018 at 6:35 p.m.). So far on home soil, they have produced a win over Wolves and suffered a one-goal margin defeat against Liverpool.

Leicester were torn apart 4-2 by Bournemouth last weekend and Leicester only put a bit of respectively on the board with two goals in the final two minutes of the fixture. One of those was a penalty. The Foxes have scored 75% of their goals in the second half of matches this season. So bearing all that in mind a draw/Leicester half-time/ full-time wager is at 3/1 odds* (Betting Odds were taken from September 18th, 2018 at 6:35 p.m.). Jamie Vardy is the first goalscorer favorite.

Huddersfield News and Form

Huddersfield are just going through some struggles at the moment as they have only posted the two points so far from drawn fixtures against Cardiff and Everton. They suffered a 1-0 home defeat against Crystal Palace last weekend and that first win of the season looks a long way away for them. Out on their travels, this season Huddersfield are W1 L1 and they did score exactly one goal in both of those games. But they have managed just the three goals in total this season across their five league games.

This is likely to end under 2.5 goals and we can’t see the Terriers getting more than one goal in the game. If that. Both of the goals that they have scored this season have come in the first half of matches. Of the nine goals that Huddersfield have shipped this season, six of them have been in the 15 minute period before halftime. So that is a good period to watch for your live in-play betting. A Leicester 2-0 correct score option is at 6/1 odds for the game* (Betting Odds were taken from September 18th, 2018 at 6:35 p.m.).

Leicester v Huddersfield Head to Head

Leicester picked up four points from their matches against Huddersfield last season which included an easy 3-0 home win.
