Football Whispers Predictions for Southampton vs Leicester
Contents
Leicester Double Chance
Leicester have picked up three wins and a draw from their last five encounters with Southampton and we're backing the visitors with a double chance bet this Wednesday. Southampton have lost their last two league games against Norwich and Liverpool, while Leicester have secured two wins and two draws from their last five matches in all competitions.
BTTS
There is a great chance that both teams will score on Wednesday as that has been the case in three of their last five league meetings. Both teams have also scored in three of Southampton's and four of Leicester's last six fixtures in all competitions, so you can see just why we're backing against either side keeping a clean sheet on Wednesday.
Vardy to Score
Leicester's veteran forward Jamie Vardy has been in impressive form for the Foxes this season, netting 9 league goals so far. The former England international was on target twice against Watford at the weekend, ending his run of seven games without a goal in all competitions. We're backing Vardy to find the back of the net once again against Southampton, whether that be from open play or the penalty spot.

An entertaining 90-minutes on the cards at St Mary's
Southampton made the trip to Liverpool not expecting to come away with any points, and that is just the way the game went. Liverpool ran out comfortable 4-0 winners and in truth, it could have been more, so the Saints will be looking to draw a line under that performance and quickly move on.
Maddison put in a man-of-the-match performance against Watford to guide Leicester to all 3pts. The England midfielder scored the opening goal and set up both of Vardy's efforts on the way to a 4-2 victory over Watford. Lookman scored the final goal of the game in the 68th-minute to ensure the victory went the way of the home side. The Foxes sit 10th following that result and could move into the top 6 with a win at St Mary's.
