Leicester vs Swansea Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship

Prediction published on 30/01/2024, 06:17  by Sridhar in Championship Predictions

Leicester will look to keep their Championship title march on, when they host a mid-table Swansea. This matchday will be played at the King Power Stadium on Tuesday. The hosts are top of the standings with 66 points while the visitors are 16th with 33 points. Leicester are seven points ahead of the second-placed Ipswich and look well-placed to win the title. They are coming off a 3-0 win over Birmingham in the FA Cup, which made it a win, a draw and a loss each across their last three competitive games. That defeat to Coventry in that sequence is their only loss across 14 competitive matches. The Foxes won ten and draw three games in the sequence giving momentum in the division’s title race. Their form at this venue is much better as Leicester have won six of their last seven competitive home games, drawing the other.

Swansea find themselves eight points above the relegation zone, and are fairly comfortable in the mid-table. Such comforts don’t give comfort to the fact that their recent form has been patchy. The visitors have won just three of their last 14 league games, where they lost five and drew six matches. They would be worried about their defensive record though, as Swansea have already conceded 44 goals. Their recent away form is one of concern too as the Swans have failed to win six of their last seven away league games where they drew and lost three each.
