Football Whisper's Predictions for West Ham vs Leicester
West Ham haven't lost any of their last four meetings with Leicester in the Premier League and both teams head into Saturday's clash with 14pts from their opening 14 league games. Both teams have struggled for consistency this season but the Foxes do appear to be on the up now so the World Cup couldn't have come at a worse time for Rodgers' men.

Both Teams to Score
We're expecting goals at both ends of the pitch this weekend as five of the last six encounters between West Ham and Leicester have ended the same way. West Ham's last two fixtures have ended with both teams getting on the scoreboard, while Lecteser have scored in all bar one of their last five matches in all competitions.
Over 2.5 Goals
At least three goals have been scored in each of the last six matches played between these two clubs and we're expecting another goal-fest on Saturday. West Ham's last three outings in league and cup have witnessed over 2.5 goals scored, while the same can be said for two of the Foxes' last four fixtures.

West Ham will leapfrog Leicester with a win
West Ham took the lead at home to Crystal Palace last weekend through Benrahma in the 20th-minute but still ended up losing the game. Zaha equalised for the visitors before the break after good work from Eze and deep into second-half stoppage time, just when the game seemed to be heading for a draw, Zaha turned provider to setup Olise with the winning goal for the Eagles.
West Ham Predicted lineup – Fabiański, Cresswell, Dawson, Zouma, Kehrer, Souček, Rice, Paquetá, Lanzini, Bowen & Scamacca
Leicester made the trip to Goodison Park for their last league game where Rodgers' men dominated the match from start to finish and deservedly claimed all 3pts. Tielemans fired in a spectacular goal right on the stroke of halftime to put the Foxes a goal to the good. Leicester continued to create chance after chance in the second-half and eventually wrapped up the points through Barnes 4-minutes from time, making the final scoreline 2-0.
Leicester Predicted lineup – Ward, Amartey, Castagne, Faes, Justin, Tielemans, Maddison, Soumaré, Dewsbury-Hall, Barnes & Daka
