Leicester vs Brighton Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Devesh Jaganath in Premier League Predictions
The King Power Stadium will be buzzing this weekend when Leicester City play host to Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon. The Foxes are in 16th place in the league standings while the Seagulls are fifth after the first 14 games of the season. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Leicester won six of their first eight Premier League matches against this opponent, but they enter this one winless in their last four, drawing two and losing two. Brighton have failed to win any of their last six matches at the King Power Stadium in the top flight, last beating the Foxes on their home patch in April 2014 when both sides were still in the Championship.
One interesting stat is that the hosts have only lost one of their last 10 top-flight matches when playing on a Sunday, but they are the clear underdogs in this one according to the latest bookmaker odds.

Leicester - Brighton: Form Analysis
Leicester City will enter this match feeling confident after earning an impressive and much-needed 3-1 victory over West Ham United at this venue in midweek.
That result followed three consecutive league defeats and halted a six-match winless streak for the Foxes across all competitions dating back to a 3-2 win over Southampton in mid-October.
At the King Power, the hosts have picked up eight points from a possible 21 this season (W2 D2 L3) but they have scored in all seven matches on home soil to date.
Leicester City have only kept one clean sheet in 14 Premier League games this season!
Meanwhile, Brighton & Hove Albion will be hoping to make a swift return to winning ways after suffering a disappointing 3-1 defeat to Fulham on the road in midweek.
That defeat ended a three-match unbeaten run for the Seagulls but was just their second loss in eight league games (W4 D2 L2) since the end of September.
The visitors have taken 10 points from their seven away league games this season, but they have struggled for consistency, as they have not won two in a row on the road yet this term.

Leicester & Brighton Squad Analysis
New boss Ruud van Nistelrooy has two long-term absentees at present in the form of Abdul Fatawu and Ricardo Pereira. The duo are out with a cruciate ligament and hamstring injury respectively and are only expected to return in the New Year.
Harry Winks is closing in on a return from a muscle injury but this match has likely come too soon to see him make the starting lineup, while Jakub Stolarczyk is still a few weeks away.
Patson Daka came off the bench to score in midweek and could be handed a start!
For the visitors, James Milner and Solly March are both back in training and could feature on the bench this weekend, though Adam Webster has been ruled out with a hamstring injury.
The Seagulls have several players listed as doubts at present, including the likes of Joel Veltman (muscle), Jack Hinshelwood (knee) and Ferdi Kadioglu (muscle).

Our Leicester vs Brighton Prediction
Leicester will be feeling much better about themselves after snapping their three-match losing streak in midweek, but they will know that facing top-half Brighton will be a much tougher task.
The Seagulls have the personnel to unlock any defence on their day and have done so more often than not, but they are far from water-tight in their own defence, managing only one clean sheet in their last 10 league games. Therefore, our Leicester City vs Brighton & Hove Albion prediction is both teams to score.
Leicester vs Brighton - Other Interesting Predictions
Over 2.5
Seven of Leicester City’s last 10 league games have ended with over 2.5 goals, while three or more goals were scored in eight of Brighton & Hove Albion’s last 10 top-flight matches.
