West Ham
Two defensively vulnerable teams go head-to-head tonight in what promises to be an intriguing clash.
Leicester, under the new leadership of Ruud van Nistelrooy, have yet to see a turnaround in fortunes.
His debut match in charge ended in a heavy 4-1 defeat away to Brentford, extending the Foxes’ winless streak to six games.
The home team is desperate for a positive result as they face West Ham tonight. Both sides share a common trait: a tendency to concede goals. However, West Ham come into the match in slightly better form, having secured impressive wins in their last two games - a 2-0 victory away at Newcastle and a 2-1 triumph at home against Manchester United.
Adding to their momentum, West Ham welcome back their key attacker, Kudus, from suspension, which should bolster their offense.
Recent encounters between these teams suggest an open contest, with both sides scoring in four of their last five meetings.
What we say
Both Teams to Score
Leicester, strong at home, will look to capitalize on their attacking strengths as they take on West Ham - a team that has struggled defensively, conceding nine goals in six away matches this season. With both sides eager for a victory and prone to defensive lapses, this clash promises to be an open contest.
It's shaping up to be a game where both teams are likely to find the back of the net.
