3 reasons Leicester will beat Manchester City in the Premier League

Decent home form

Although it’s been a tough opening three months to their Premier League title defence, Leicester are still proving tough to beat at the King Power Stadium.

Of their seven league games, they have lost only once, to West Brom on November 6, and have won three and drawn three of the other six.

Comfortable victories over Swansea, Burnley, and Crystal Palace showed glimpses of last season’s Leicester, while 0-0 draws against Arsenal and Southampton once again demonstrated their defensive stubbornness.

Their last result was a 2-2 draw at home to Middlesbrough, which actually looked set to be their second loss at the King Power but for Islam Slimani’s late penalty.

Nonetheless, the Foxes are playing reasonably well at home, and they will need to do so again to stop City improving upon their excellent away record.
