Chelsea vs Leicester Prediction & Betting Tips - FA Cup

 by Ian John in FA Cup Predictions

Chelsea face Leicester City on Saturday in an FA Cup Quarterfinal tie, the first FA Cup match between the two since the 2021 FA Cup Final, which Leicester City won 1-0 at Wembley thanks to Youri Tielemans strike. Since then the Foxes have been relegated, but Chelsea, despite billions spent on players, have also underachieved hugely in the Premier League last season and have done so again this. A 3-2 win over Newcastle United on Monday night eased the pressure a little on Mauricio Pochettino but the Stamford Bridge faithful remain far from convinced that the ex-Spurts and PSG boss is the man to take the team forward to challenge the top teams in the EPL. In the FA Cup though, Chelsea have looked strong, winning 4-0 in the 3rd Round against Preston, and then drawing 0-0 at home with Aston Villa before winning 3-1 at Villa Park. They then beat Leeds 3-2 at Stamford Bridge to earn a shot at Leicester in the Quarterfinals.

Enzo Maresca has enjoyed a great start to his tenure as Leicester City manager, leading the Foxes to the top of the Championship table and also a place in the quarterfinals of the FA Cup. However, things have been more difficult of late with three straight defeats in the league, cutting their once huge lead at the top of the Championship down to just three points. In the FA Cup, Leicester have proved their quality in tough away games. They beat Millwall 3-2 in the Third Round at the New Den and Bournemouth 1-0 at the Vitality Stadium in the fifth round. Sandwiched in between was a 3-0 home win in the 4th Round over Birmingham City. The quality Leicester possess could give Chelsea a few problems in this game.

Chelsea - Leicester Key Points

  1. Chelsea have lost just one of their last seven games in all competitions. That has included two notable FA Cup wins away to Aston Villa (3-1) and also at home to Leeds United (3-2). The Blues were 3-2 winners over Newcastle on Monday, a result which leaves them 11th in the Premier League table.
  2. Leicester City are enduring something of a sticky spell despite still being top of the Championship. They have won just one of their last five games in that competition, losing three and drawing their last game away to Hull City at the weekend.
  3. Both teams have scored in seven of Chelsea's last eight matches in all competitions. 67% of Chelsea's games this season have seen both teams find the net, while 63% have seen over 2.5 goals.
  4. Nine of Leicester City's last 12 games in the Championship have seen both teams score.
  5. Chelsea have won four of the last five games against Leicester and both teams have scored and there have been over 2.5 goals in four of the last five games between the two.

Our Chelsea vs Leicester Prediction

Recent games between Chelsea and Leicester have been close-run affairs, even if Chelsea have had the upper-hand in most of them. The Blues have not enjoyed the best Premier League season but have done well in the cups, reaching the Carabao Cup Final. They'll want another Wembley appearance by winning here against Championship table-toppers Leicester. The Foxes will certainly give Chelsea a good game here, but I think the home side has the quality to win and if they do, Cole Palmer will likely play a key role. Our prediction here is for Cole Palmer (Chelsea) to score at any time in the game.
