Will Leicester get back on track with Vardy? Leicester vs Aston Villa betting prediction, team information & odds – Premier League by PicksSoccer.com Team!
The third from Leicester welcomes Aston Villa to the penultimate of the Premier League table. However, the home side has been waiting for the next three for four rounds. The offensive was particularly disappointing recently. Not a single goal was scored in the last three games. It is a good thing from the Foxes’ point of view that the shooting gallery of the league is now arriving.

No team has conceded more goals than the Birmingham kickers. Specifically, the newcomer has an average of almost two goals per encounter in the British House of Lords. The saving bank is only two points away, but at last the shape curve with three bankruptcies in a row pointed downwards again.
This particularly hurt the weak against the direct competitor in the relegation battle from Bournemouth. For the upcoming duel between Leicester and Aston Villa, the tip includes a mutual goal.
Leicester – Statistics & current form
After a rather disappointing ninth place last year, the Foxes have been ranking for this season for the Champions League for quite some time. Although the second place had to be given back to the Citizens in the meantime, even third place is of course a great preliminary season balance for the 2016 champion.
Leicester on the way to the Champions League
In view of the anticipated ban on Manchester City, even fifth place should be sufficient to take part in the premier class this season, which is why Leicester can already plan for the competition. After all, the foxes still have an impressive eight points ahead of them on this course.
In view of the comfortable table position in the last few weeks, the motivation on the part of the troop from the East Midlands has been lost. As mentioned at the beginning, none of the last four league games were won.
“I think we controlled the game to a large extent. We were certainly a bit sloppy now and then, but apart from that, I think we were the well deserved winner. ” – Midfielder Marc Albrighton after the recent 1-0 victory in the FA Cup against Birmingham against LCFC TV
Admittedly, the opposition with teams such as the (still) reigning champions, the formally strong Wolves and Chelsea was mostly challenging. The exception is the last game day when Leicester even suffered a surprising 0-1 loss at the bottom of the table in Norwich.
Vardy returns to the square
The misery on the offensive can be partly explained by the fact that Jamie Vardy was missing injured recently. The 33-year-old, together with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, currently occupies first place in the scorer scoring and is responsible for almost a third of all Leicester goals with 17 goals.
In the FA Cup match against Birmingham last Wednesday, Vardy also had to pass, but the striker should be available again against the Lions Villa. It is also encouraging from the point of view of the home side that Wilfried Ndidi has recently been able to be used more strongly in midfield.
The Nigerian played in the FA Cup game he won just under an hour after his short comeback on his comeback on the final game day in Norwich.
How important he is for the defensive statics of the team can be seen from the fact that only three of the nine games ended with a win without him and instead three losses and draws had to be booked equally.
Probable lineup of Leicester:
↳ Schmeichel – Chilwell – Söyüncü – Evans – Pereira – Ndidi – Albrighton – Praet – Iheanacho – Gray – Vardy

Aston Villa – Statistics & current form
Apparently Aston Villa doesn’t really like to play on a Monday evening. In the past ten years, nine such games were played at the beginning of the week and none could be won (0-2-7). Apart from this statistic, there is not much else to suggest that Coach Dean Smith’s team had a successful outing.
Villa has an away problem
The country’s seven-time title holder is in acute relegation difficulties and can hardly convince, especially abroad. Ten of 14 guest appearances have already been lost. A disastrous number that otherwise only Bournemouth and the bottom of the table from Norwich have. During the winter break, retrofitting was carried out at least on the offensive.
Mbwana Samatta was a powerful attacker from the Belgian champions from Genk. The 27-year-old from Tanzania has undoubtedly been one of the best offensive players in the Jupiler League in recent years, but their level is of course clearly below the British counterpart.
Successful start for Samatta
It remains to be seen whether he will have the class for the new environment on the island in the long term. However, this season he already played strong games in the service of his previous employer in the premier class and his debut at Villa was hopeful. Samatta scored his team’s only goal at his premiere against Bournemouth.
Also at the final in the EFL Cup a few days ago, Samatta contributed the only goal in the 1: 2 loss. When Leicester meets Aston Villa, the odds for the next goal of the new signing on home side are of interest.
Probable lineup of Aston Villa:
↳ Reina – Konsa – Mings – Hause – Luiz – Nakamba – Targett – Guilbert – El-Ghazi – Grealish – Samatta

Leicester vs Aston Villa Betting Predictions and Odds by PicksSoccer.com Team
Although the last results were not good, Leicester coach Brendan Rodgers can be very satisfied with the season. His team is best placed in third place. In addition, Jamie Vardy is the club’s top scorer and the very important defensive player Ndidi should be able to play again for the first time after his injury break.
The signs are therefore better again compared to the situation in the past few weeks. Furthermore, the Claret & Blue Army is a real opponent of construction. The penultimate table has lost its three most recent league games and has a chronically weak defense.
