Bookmaker Ratings prediction one – Home win – 1.90
Bookmaker Ratings prediction two – Leicester City’s Goals handicap (-0.5) – 1.86
Match Predict – Home win
Leicester are the slight favorites to win this match with the bookies, and also, the statistics show the same outcome. Moreover, Brendan Rodgers will motivate his players to finish this season on a high note in front of their fans.
Leicester City’s Goals handicap (-0.5)
The hosts have covered -0.5 handicap in their last three league games. We think they will continue this trend in this matchup.
In addition, the Saints have conceded at least 2 goals in 11 of their last 13 away PL fixtures.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Leicester City vs Southampton
Leicester are on good run at the moment, having taken 7 points from the last nine available (W2, D1). With 49 points, the Foxes are in 9th place and will secure another top-half finish.
Nonetheless, they can finish as high as eighth, and with current eighth-placed Wolves playing against Liverpool, who still battle for the PL trophy.

On the other hand, Southampton lost to Liverpool (1:2) this Tuesday, extending their winless streak to five matches. The Saints have already secured their top-flight status for next season.
The lack of motivation was present in the Saints’ recent matches, and stats show that.
