Competition: Premier League
Market: Manchester City to win against Leicester City
Odds: 1/2 @ Betfair
Manchester City have turned their season around in the last few weeks. The Sky Blues recently earned unlikely victories against Bayern Munich and AS Roma to progress to the last-16 of the Champions League, while winning four Premier League games on the bounce to reduce their deficit to league leaders Chelsea to just three points.
Manuel Pellegrini’s side will be full of confidence ahead of their trip to bottom-of-the-table Leicester City this weekend. The Midlands club aren’t having a good time, however. Nigel Pearson has found his position under pressure with the Foxes currently propping up the table after 15 games, while enduring a 10-game winless run that has seen them pick up just two points.
Betfair are giving odds of 1/2 for Manchester City to earn all three points against Leicester this weekend as result of the contrasting form, especially given how poor the host’s defensive record has been of late too, conceding 10 goals in their last five games.
It’s worth noting Manchester City have comfortably won their last two away games – 3-0 to Southampton and 4-1 to Sunderland.
