APWin Prediction

Under 2.5 Goals

After a thorough assessment of the primary betting markets, APWin analysts have identified bets with strong value potential.

👉 Our prediction is: Watford win or draw

Watford has been a thorn in the side of many teams of late, and even away from home, they are quite a dangerous opponent for anyone. So as they travel to face Leicester, our betting tip is Watford win or draw on the Double Chance market, which means they can either win or draw for the bet to win.

It would honestly not be that big of a surprise if Watford emerged victorious against Leicester given the quality they've shown, but claiming a point is a much more realistic goal.

👉 Our prediction is: over 9.5 corners

Our top tip for Leicester vs Watford is to take advantage of the corners market, particularly taking the over on 9.5 corners. There is good value to be had in that bet, which is priced at 1.62.

Both teams need to combine for at least 10 corners to win the bet, which may seem like a lot. But based on their statistical profile for this season, we expect them to easily clear that mark in their upcoming matchup.
