Leicester City travel to Bournemouth Saturday morning to take on the Cherries. Leicester finally got a win last time out blasting Nottingham Forest 4-0 at the King Power. James Maddison finally came to play, getting a fortunate deflected shot in the net and a beautiful free kick. Harvey Barnes also got on the score sheet playing on the left wing. I continue to say that this attack should be yielding a lot of goals, despite them being 19th in the table. The real issue for Brendan Rodgers’ side has been defensively, so finally keeping a clean sheet has to give them some confi dence. The hope is that Jonny Evans partnered with new signing Wout Faes should solidify their poor defensive record. They looked more stable in this last match, and take on a weak Bournemouth attack come Saturday. We shall see if they can do it twice on the spin. I like Leicester and the over here in this one. These two sides have the bottom two NPxG in the Premier League. So if you just played the numbers, you would say why not play the under. For one, Leicester always concede on the road, and I will assume that until I see otherwise. And again, I just think Leicester have the attacking talent to make this right, and improve their underlying numbers. I will take the Foxes and Over 2.5.
