Championship

Leicester

vs

Preston

This is a clash between two out-of-form sides, with Leicester desperate for points to escape the relegation zone and Preston looking to stabilize after a string of losses. Both have struggled to score lately, and their defences have not been particularly solid, but the attacking output is especially poor. The historical H2H favours Leicester, but current form and motivation suggest a tight, tense, low-scoring encounter. A draw is likely, with goals at a premium.

Championship

Watford

vs

Leicester

This is a mid-table clash with Watford at home and Leicester fighting to avoid the drop. Both teams come in with patchy form (Watford LDWLW, Leicester LWDLD), and neither side is particularly convincing defensively. Watford's home record is solid but not dominant, while Leicester have struggled away, conceding 32 in 19 games. Both teams average just over a goal per game recently, and the match is likely to be tight, with few clear-cut chances. The H2H history strongly favours Leicester, but Watford won the reverse fixture this season. Expect a cagey, low-scoring game with a draw the most likely outcome, but value exists on goals markets due to the generous odds.

Championship

Leicester

vs

QPR

This is a clash between two struggling sides, with Leicester desperate for points in the relegation zone and QPR on a three-game losing streak. Both teams have poor recent form and leaky defences, but also struggle to finish chances. Leicester's home record is only slightly better than QPR's away, and both sides have a high season over 2.5 rate, though recent matches have trended lower scoring. Expect a tense, possibly scrappy affair with both teams likely to score but neither dominating.

Championship

Leicester

vs

Bristol City

Leicester, struggling near the bottom of the table and winless in five, face a mid-table Bristol City side with a strong away record and better recent form. Leicester's defence has been poor, conceding over 2 goals per game in their last five, and their home form is unreliable. Bristol City have been more consistent, especially away, and their attack is likely to trouble Leicester's leaky backline. Both sides have high BTTS and over 2.5 rates recently, suggesting an open game with goals. Bristol City are favoured to edge this, but a high-scoring draw is also plausible.

Championship

Ipswich

vs

Leicester

Ipswich, strong at home and in good form, host a struggling Leicester side with poor recent results and defensive issues. Ipswich's attack has been consistent, while Leicester have conceded heavily but still show some attacking threat. The home side are clear favourites, but Leicester's desperation for points and tendency for both teams to score in their matches suggest this could be more open than the odds imply.

Championship

Leicester

vs

Norwich

Leicester are struggling badly, winless in their last five and conceding an average of 2.4 goals per game in that stretch. Norwich, by contrast, have won three of their last five and are much improved away from home, averaging 1.8 goals scored and only 0.8 conceded in recent matches. While Leicester have historically dominated this fixture, current form and defensive frailty suggest Norwich are better placed to take points, especially given their solid away record. Expect a competitive match with both sides likely to score, but Norwich's superior momentum gives them the edge.

Championship

Middlesbrough

vs

Leicester

Middlesbrough, currently 2nd and in strong home form, host a struggling Leicester side on a four-match losing streak. Boro's attack is consistent and their defence solid at home, while Leicester's away record is poor with a leaky defence. Expect Middlesbrough to control much of the play, but Leicester's tendency to score even when losing means a competitive contest is likely, with goals probable on both sides.

Championship

Stoke City

vs

Leicester

This is a clash between two out-of-form sides, with Stoke City holding home advantage but winless in five and Leicester on a four-game losing streak. Stoke have been solid defensively at home but struggle to score, while Leicester's attack is more prolific but their defence is among the worst in the league. The head-to-head history is dominated by Leicester, but their current form and away record are poor. Expect a tight, tense match with few clear chances and a strong possibility of a draw.

FA Cup

Southampton

vs

Leicester

Southampton enter this FA Cup tie in strong form, unbeaten in their last five and coming off a dramatic 4-3 away win at Leicester. Leicester, by contrast, are on a four-game losing streak and have struggled defensively, conceding 2.2 goals per game in their last five. However, H2H history suggests Leicester are capable of competing, and recent meetings have been high-scoring. Expect Southampton to control more of the play at home, but Leicester's counter-attacking threat and cup motivation could keep things close. Goals are likely, with both teams possessing enough attacking quality to find the net.
