Leicester vs Nottingham 03.10.2022

Leicester City have endured a torrid start to the Premier League this season. The Foxes have been without a win in their first seven games of this term. Before the international break, they were trounced 6-2 by Tottenham to further compound their woes.

Next up is a fixture at home against fellow strugglers, Nottingham Forest who have been able to manage only one win themselves. Ordinarily, this would have been regarded as a walk in the park for Brendan Rodgers’ men. However, their current form is far from impressive. Nevertheless, this fixture at the King Power Stadium presents an opportunity for the former champions to get their first win of the season.

In addition, considering the rich history of gaols in this fixture, we are backing Leicester City to win or draw the match with at least three total goals scored.
