Our prediction for this Premier League match:
After suffering a 2-1 loss to Crystal Palace in the local derby, West Ham will try to record their only fifth win of the season when they face fellow bottom-table side Leicester on Matchday 16. The Hammers suffered three defeats in the previous four league fixtures, but they are surely capable of matching the Foxes in London. Except from Maxwel Cornet, David Moyes should have a full squad to choose from for Saturday’s encounter.
The visitors, on the other hand, quickly bounced back from a 1-0 loss to Man City, with the team beating Everton at Goodison Park, and given their improvement up front, both teams to score betting option should be considered. You should bear in mind that over 2.5 goals have been netted in each of their last seven meetings in all competitions. Both Bertrand and Ricardo are sidelined with injuries for the visiting side.
