Leicester vs Wolves: Predictions and Betting Tips

Leicester

After winning the Community Shield against Manchester City a week ago, Leicester are motivated going into the league opener, knowing that for yet another season, they have the ability to beat any opponent, if they do things right.

Leicester have so far made three new signings, Patson Daka from Leipzig for 30 million, Boubakary Soumaré from Lille for 20 million, and Ryan Bertrand who arrives as a free agent.

Leicester will also play in the Europa League this season, and are among the big teams that could win it.

Wolves

Wolves have invested heavily in recent seasons to improve their results, although so far the most they have achieved is to qualify for the Europa League for the 2019-2020 season.

If there is one thing Wolves have been known for in recent years, it has been their constant interest in signing Portuguese players. In fact, last season, Wolves’ second kit featured the colours of the Portuguese flag in reference to the Portuguese players. This season there are eight Portuguese players in the squad, although there are many others who have gone out on loan to other teams.

Last season Wolves did not fare too well as an away team, winning only five out of 19 games.

Key Stats:

• Two wins, two draws, and one defeat for Leicester in their last five games
• Leicester have conceded at least one goal in four of their last five games
• Two wins, one draw, and two defeats for Wolves in their last five games
• Wolves have conceded at least one goal in their last four games

Leicester vs Wolves Predictions

Leicester have a large squad of talented players. Although Wolves have a lot of physical strength, we still think that they fall short of the quality of the Leicester team. In addition, Leicester are coming off the back of a cup win, which gives them even more motivation, and they have three very strong attacking players in Jamie Vardy, James Maddison and Harvey Barnes. The fact that Leicester are the home team is also an important factor and we think Leicester should win this match.
