Leicester City vs Fulham Betting Analysis
It certainly hasn’t been the greatest return to the Premier League for Leicester after the recent World Cup break as they’ve dropped each of their last two games since the league resumed last week.
That said, the Foxes have faced both Newcastle and Liverpool in those two games, two of the best teams in the league, so Brendan Rogers will be targetting a much more winnable game here on Tuesday, at least on paper, against a Fulham side who have really surprised this season.
Unlike Leicester, Fulham have won both of their recent EPL starts since the restart as Portuguese manager Marco Silva continues to work wonders at the West London club.
Leicester have won two of the three meetings against Fulham in this venue over the last decade. However, that one loss for the Foxes did come in their last matchup here two years ago in a 2-1 victory for the Cottagers.
Fulham Showing They’re Not Going Anywhere
Winning the Championship, England’s second-tier league, is certainly no guarantee of safety in the top-flight Premier League, and Fulham were penciled in as one of the favorites to go straight back down by the bookies at the start of the season.
However, the Cottagers have defied all expectations this year, currently sitting 7th in the league, and have lost just two of their last eight league games overall, with both Manchester United and Manchester City needing incredibly late injury-time goals to see out the West London side over recent games showing they’re not just here to make up the numbers this season.
2023 A Welcome Sight For Leicester
After a really tough 2022 which saw the Foxes plummet from European contention to propping up the foot of the table, Leicester will be hoping a new year brings new fortunes for them in 2023.
That could well be the case for Leicester as well as the Foxes have traditionally opened up new calendar years strong, winning nine of their last fourteen January league games to open up a new calendar year, and will look to make it win #10 here on Tuesday against Fulham also.
Leicester City vs Fulham Prediction
For a team known for their offensive capability, two straight scoring blanks in straight losing efforts at home for Leicester is simply unacceptable, and potentially registering a third here on Tuesday would see them equal an almost 40-year league record, not the kind of start Brendan Rodgers would have envisioned for his team heading into a new year.
That should bring out the best in Leicester in this one as a result in what should be a much more focused effort from them at home here on Tuesday against a tough Fulham side at the King Power.
Take Leicester City to get the outright win against Fulham over in the English Premier League on Tuesday.
Prediction: Leicester City Moneyline +125
