Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Friday’s football game between Leicester City and Nottingham Forest will open round 9 of the new Premier League campaign. The Foxes aim to build on back-to-back wins over Bournemouth and Southampton and they must be high on confidence ahead of the visit of Forest. In Patson Daka’s absence, veteran Jamie Vardy will continue leading the line for the hosts. Midfielder Hamza Choudhury misses out with injury as well.
Meanwhile, the Reds aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Crystal Palace, but beating the in-form Foxes at King Power Stadium is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. The good news for the visiting team is that midfielder James Ward-Prowse is back from suspension, while the likes of Morgan Gibbs-White, Ibrahim Sangare, and Danilo remain on the sidelines with injuries.
