Leicester City – Newcastle United, Prediction – Premier League

👍 Leicester with a wrong step, but still very likely to stay in the top 4

Leicester failed to win against Southampton last Friday but remained in third place with a solid lead over the pursuers away from the top 4. The Foxes did not play a strong game. They were left with one more man in the 10th minute but still failed to impose dominance over the team, which they blurred 9-0 last season. At Leicester, the upgrade process is going great, because over the course of the season we see more and more players start to stand out and replace the previous main ones. For example, Iheanacho can now be said to be Vardy’s long-term deputy.

🙌 Newcastle is almost saved

Newcastle performed poorly against the weary Arsenal on Sunday. He tired only in theory because he didn’t look like that on the field. The Magpies did not show the necessary level against the Gunners, but thanks to another loss to Fulham, which seemed to be expected by Chelsea, the difference remains at 9 points and 4 rounds before the end it is not clear how the Cottages will catch up. We expect in this round Newcastle and the others above them to be officially saved.

The foxes are obliged to win the match

 Expert view: We will hardly see Newcastle at its highest level until the end of the season. Steve Bruce is torn by criticism, although he saved the team, and the club’s number one topic is still the sale by Mike Ashley, so the decisive times to Newcastle are yet to come. We think that the Geordies will just finish the season without much motivation, while Leicester will play Man U, Chelsea, and Tottenham + a final with Chelsea for the FA Cup until the end of the season. In none of these matches Leicester will be a clear favorite, and still can’t be 100% sure of their place in the top 4, so it is logical to do everything possible to win this match and we believe that in the 1st half will impose their dominance. Prediction – Leicester to score in the 1st half at 1.61.
