Leicester vs West Ham Predictions, Tips & Predictions

Leicester City vs West Ham United
England - Premier League
Date: Sunday, October 4, 2024
Starts at 12pm UK / 00pm CET
Location: King Power Stadium.

The Foxes were absolutely dismayed to have lost out on a Champions League ticket last season and seem to be taking their frustration out on anyone who stumbles in front of them now.

They decimated Manchester City with a 2-5 win at the Etihad on the final day of the game and extended their perfect winning record to another week. They are the first leaders of the table and are also the ones that scored the most goals so far.

After the surprising victory in the 2015/16 season, the team would certainly like another shot at the EPL trophy. However, the competition is much better now and they will have to keep an eye out for the threat Liverpool pose.

The only possible way now is to aim for a 100-point campaign, which seems to be the barrier dictated by Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola.

A win is likely a must this Saturday for Brendan Rodgers' men.

It helps that they are at home and up against a team that finished just one place above the relegation cap in 2019-20. In fact, the Hammers are one of the weakest teams in the league and have been an absolute wreck on the road lately.

As such, expect a Leicester win this weekend at the King Power Stadium.

Leicester vs West Ham: Prediction

David Moyes' charges achieved a 4-0 home win on the last day of the game against Wolves.

However, that was their only win against a top side in the entire 2019-20 season, and on the road, their only two wins of 2024 have come against Norwich and Gillingham, who play in the lower divisions.

In fact, the Hammers had even gone on a six-game losing streak on the road in 2024. And to keep growing, they are one of the worst teams in the league and also have a worrying h2h record against this opponent. Recently.

Probably expect a Leicester win this Sunday, and that's through and through.
