Where they defeated Newcastle (3 × 2) and Southampton (4 × 1), Leicester have come out of four consecutive Premier League wins and have shown signs of finally getting involved in the competition and should be very busy, especially indoors where it is very strong and won 3 of the last 4 games,
against opponents of good level like Everton, Bunrley and Tottenham, being that the defeat was exactly against the unbeatable Manchester City.
It is true that the team still does not have the talented Adrien Silva, but it is also true that the team did not feel so much their absence and maintained the good level.
Crystal Palace: After a horrific campaign start, Crystal Palace have been able to claim 6 consecutive games of unbeaten run and left the troublesome 20th place, but it remains in the relegation zone and comes from a very complicated home turn against Watford,
who won the game until the 85 minutes when he had a player expelled and suffered 2 goals. And even with the clear evolution of the team, the majority was as principal,
as Crystal Palace still showed very little away from home, where they still seek their first win having 2 draws and 6 losses in that condition. For this game the Crystal should not count on Sakho, Milivojevic and Delaney, in addition to Joel Ward still be a doubt.
Prediction Leicester vs Crystal Palace:
Without ignoring the recent rise of Crystal Palace, I consider that a team that started practicing a reasonable football only in the last weeks, and even without being able to convert to victories,
is still a big unknown in the face of a better solid and consolidated Leicester in the league, who has played a consistent football for some time and comes from 4 consecutive and well deserved victories. The field control in this game is also quite relevant,
as Crystal has a poor record away from home and Leicester is admittedly a top-notch home team.
