Intro

West Ham United will be full of confidence following their recent win over Premier League title chasing Arsenal and three more points will move them further away from the drop zone. Unfortunately, Leicester City will need more than the odd win or two to save them this season.

When you look at the Premier League table, West Ham United are in 16th position and they look in trouble. However, that doesn’t tell the full story.

The Hammers are two places outside the drop zone, but they are actually already 13 points clear of Ipswich Town in the third relegation spot.

A couple of wins will see them move up the ladder dramatically, so at this moment in time relegation is not really a concern for Graham Potter.

Since replacing Julen Lopetegui as West Ham manager, Potter has guided the Hammers to two Premier League wins and one draw.

They ended a two-game losing streak last weekend with a stunning 1-0 win over Arsenal with Jarrod Bowen scoring the only goal of the game.

The Hammers are still without striker Michail Antonio after he was involved in a car accident that saw him end up with a broken leg. He will miss the remainder of the season.

Leicester City have found life back in the Premier League very difficult indeed.

They are currently second from bottom with 17 points with just four wins under their belt. They are five points from safety and eight points ahead of bottom club Southampton.

Ruud van Nistelrooy took over from Steve Cooper on November 29 and guided the Foxes to victory in his first official game in charge as they defeated Thursday’s opponents 3-1 at the King Power Stadium.

Since that win, City have won just once more and that was a stunning 2-1 away win at Tottenham Hotspur.

The Foxes are currently on a three-game losing streak thanks to defeats against Everton, Arsenal and Brentford - conceding 10 goals and scoring zero.

James Justin is doubtful with a foot injury, while Abdul Fatawa will be out of action until the start of next season after suffering an ACL injury.

Head To Head

West Ham United and Leicester City have met 96 times in competitive matches. The Hammers have won 37 - with 26 on home soil - while the Foxes have 35 victories under their belt.

These two have already met this season. It was Van Nistelrooy’s first match in charge and he saw his new team run out 3-1 winners thanks to goals from Jamie Vardy, Bilal El Khannouss and Patson Daka.

Leicester have won the last three meetings against West Ham, including a 2-0 win at the London Stadium in 2022. West Ham have not beaten Leicester in the Premier League since August 2021.

West Ham are improving slowly under Potter and they know that a run of good form can see them move up the ladder and eliminate any thoughts of relegation from their mind.

Leicester City will need to show the spirit and grit that got themselves promoted, but they need to drastically improve if they are to be playing Premier League football next season.

Our Betting Tip for Today

Leicester City might have the upper hand in recent meetings against West Ham United, but I cannot see past a comfortable win for the Hammers.

The home side are clear favourites to win this match and can be backed at 3/5 with BetMGM. The Foxes are outsiders at 17/4 with the draw on offer at 3/1.

Jarrod Bowen is West Ham’s best player. He is an England international and gets through a lot of hard work each week.

He scored the winner in their stunning win over title-chasing Arsenal. He is a fans favourite on the terraces and at home with his father in law to be the famous Danny Dyer backing him.

Bowen is a match winner. He has performed well against the big teams and on the international stage, so we are expecting him to be too good for the Foxes.

Leicester have failed to score a goal in any of their last three Premier League matches and conceded 10 goals during that time.

We are backing the Hammers to make it four without any goals and move the Foxes closer to the Premier League trap door.
