Leicester v Brighton predictions
Brighton make the trip to the East Midlands for Sunday's match against Leicester as odds on favourites for victory despite winning just two of their last seven matches, most recently falling to a 3-1 defeat against Fulham on Thursday night.
Fabian Hurzeler's side headed into the midweek round of fixtures in the Champions League places after picking up seven points from their previous three matches including a notable win over Manchester City, but dropped out of the top four after Thursday's defeat.
The Seagulls now sit fifth in the table heading into the weekend's action, still just three points off the top four but astonishingly also only three points off 12th in an incredibly tightly congested Premier League table.
The midweek round of action also saw Leicester end a run of five defeats in six matches which spelled the end of Steve Cooper's short time at the club, with new boss Ruud van Nistelrooy leading his side to a 3-1 win in his first match in charge of the Foxes.
Leicester now have a four point cushion betw🌄een themselves and the relegation zone, and will fancy their chances to extend that gap on Sunday with another home fixture against a team with three defeats in their last six matches.
Sunday's match could very feasibly go any of three ways, with goals to be expected due to neither side having kept a clean sheet since October, with Leicester's new manager bounce leading to be believe a draw may be on the cards, with a 2-2 scoreline seeming more than plausible.
Leicester v Brighton betting tips
Jamie Vardy was back on the scoresheet for Leicester in midweek, scoring the first goal of the Ruud van Nistelroory era in the East Midlands less than two minutes into the Dutchman's first game in charge.
Vardy's goal was his fifth of the season making him the Foxes leading goal scorer in all competitions this season, with the former England striker now with five goal contributions in his last six matches.
Joao Pedro has been on fire for the Seagulls since returning from injury, with four goal contributions in as ma🐎ny appearances since his recovery, taking his tally for the season to four goa🔜ls in just six starts.
