Africa Top Sports football expert is making game prediction over the game opposing Manchester City to Leicester this Monday. The game takes place at the Etihad Stadium to kick-off at 15:30 GMT. The event will occurs in the framwork of the Premier League 2020-2021 season third game day.
I would like Brendan Rogers to win something with Leicester. But there are doubts about that. It seems to me that the team instead of progressing, is regressing. What is the reason for this lack of regularity?
First of all, the fact that the Foxes are not in the top 4 at the end of the season after having been long runner-up of Liverpool. After the restart, the results and the performances much decreased. I would associate it with the loss of Chilwell and Ricardo Pereira.
They were injured around the same time and were absent. A lot of things were related to that. And now Leicester often attacks on the sides. But having lost two key players to such a match, Leicester has much lost. Chilwell has already moved to Chelsea and the Portuguese is still not playing. The players who replace them on the sides are less efficient. But Leicester also continues to play the same way.
Madison is in good shape. There are doubts about that, but I could be wrong.
As for Manchester City, they won over Wolverhampton. But it could have happened that City’s final score (3-1) would have been missed and that the Wolves would have had more success in the end. It turns out that we won. But there are many claims to the team. But, as it often happens when the game does not go well, City does not have the individual skills in its attacking sector, which allows them to achieve the result ; what really happened in this game.
There are still many problems in ball-free play, and this is generally expected. For more than a month, there were no official games for the teams, and, inadequately, if I may say, was allowed to the opponents. It’s clear that bookmakers have an overwhelming chance for City. So I’d bet both will score. But Manchester will win. Leicester will act intelligently and will have their chances ahead of time. Most likely, at least once, they will stand out.
As a general rule, City punishe them when they meet such sharp rivals, which I think will also happen this time. The first option was a win for the Citizens, both scoring 2.42 in 1xbet.
Second option. I like the bet on the total of Leicester corners over three with a rate of 2.00 in 1xbet. In the previous two games, Leicester took 20 corners. But the opponents were lower than the highest level. But then you could see how the Rogers team was attacking.
I think everything will be the same this time. Since City will not be functionally ready in the best way, Leicester will organize side attacks. And there will be chances for corners. That’s why I like a proposal such as the total of Leicester’s corners over three for a score higher than two.
