Wolves News and Form
Wolves have been impressively holding their own in the Premier League following their promotion from the Championship last season. They are W3 D2 in their last five games and just once they have lost this season. That was a league defeat out at Leicester back in mid-August, Wolves losing 2-0. So they have done really well since then, their defence improving all the time as they have conceded just one of their last four games and that was in a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford against Manchester United over the weekend. That was a big point that they can be proud of and it keeps their confidence high. A Wolves 2-1 correct score is at 8/1 odds* (betting odds taken from September 23rd, 2018 at 8:01 pm). In their last six games against Leicester, Wolves are W2 D2 L2.
Leicester News and Form
After losing back to back Premier League games there was some pressure on the Foxes to win on the weekend in the top flight. They got the result they needed taking a 4-0 win over Bournemouth in league action. In the previous round of the EFL Cup they eased to a 4-0 home win over Fleetwood and the Foxes are at W4 L3 for the season. Six of their seven games played this season have made it over the 2.5 goal line and that is because their defence has been poor, with just the one clean sheet. Leicester are W1 L2 on the road this season and each of those have produced at least three goals. Both teams to score is at 4/5 odds* (betting odds taken from September 23rd, 2018 at 8:01 pm) as this could be pretty open. Leicester have scored at least two goals in their last two road games.

Wolves v Leicester Predictions
Wolves to win: We are going to roll with home advantage counting in this one as there probably isn’t going to be too much to split the pair of them. It wouldn’t be a huge surprise if this one wasn’t settled in 90 minutes and the To Qualify market may appeal.
