Leicester City vs Brentford: prediction & betting odds February 21, 2025

The Matchday 26 clash in the Premier League between Leicester and Brentford will take place on February 21 at the King Power Stadium. Leicester vs. Brentford: prediction and betting odds, statistics.

Leicester

At the end of January, Leicester secured a victory over Tottenham (2-1), but it turned out to be just a flash in the pan amidst a series of disappointing results in the league. The team then suffered an away defeat to Everton (0-4) and a home loss to Arsenal (0-2). Interestingly, the defeat to the Gunners marked their fifth consecutive home loss in the Premier League, all without scoring. Notably, only one other team in Premier League history has lost five consecutive home matches without scoring – Norwich in the 2019/20 season.

  • The club has lost 9 of their last 10 league matches.
  • The number "2" has appeared in the final score in 6 of Leicester's last 7 Premier League games.
  • Leicester has failed to score in 7 of their last 10 Premier League encounters.

Predicted lineup for Leicester (4-2-3-1)

Mads Hermansen – Caleb Okoli, Victor Kristiansen, Wout Faes, James Justin – Wilfred Ndidi, Boubakary Soumare – Bobby Decordova-Reid, Bilal El Khannous, Jordan Ayew – Jamie Vardy.

Defenders James Justin and Ricardo Pereira will miss the match due to injuries.

Brentford

Thomas Frank's side played their last Premier League match away, defeating West Ham 1-0. However, in the last 10 league games, the team has only secured three wins (2 draws and 5 losses). Interestingly, all these victories came in their last three away matches in the Premier League. The club is currently in 11th place, nine points behind the European competition spots. It's worth noting that Brentford's matches are the fourth most productive in the Premier League, with an average of 3.4 goals scored.

  • No more than three goals have been scored in 7 of Brentford's last 9 away Premier League games.
  • The number "1" has appeared in the final score in 8 of Brentford's last 11 away league matches.
  • The club has not conceded in the first half in 7 of their last 9 away Premier League games.

Predicted lineup for Brentford (4-2-3-1)

Mark Flekken – Keane Lewis-Potter, Nathan Collins, Sepp van den Berg, Kristoffer Ajer – Christian Norgaard, Vitaly Janelt – Kevin Schade, Mikkel Damsgaard, Bryan Mbeumo – Yoane Wissa.

Defenders Rico Henry and Aaron Hickey, midfielder Josh Dasilva, and forward Gustavo Nunes are sidelined with injuries.

Leicester vs. Brentford: Match Prediction

Although Leicester remains in the relegation zone, they still have a decent chance of climbing to the safe 17th place, trailing by just two points. However, they need to score more frequently, especially since this upcoming match promises to be high-scoring. I believe the hosts will finally find the net, considering Brentford ranks sixth from the bottom in defensive performance in the Premier League. Nonetheless, Leicester is unlikely to keep a clean sheet, having conceded 55 goals already (only Wolverhampton has a worse defensive record).

I give a slight preference to Brentford. The club is unbeaten in their last four away Premier League matches (3 wins and 1 draw). Meanwhile, Leicester has not tasted victory at home for six consecutive league games (1 draw and 5 losses). It's also worth noting that in the first round, Brentford thrashed Leicester 4-1 at their home ground, and in the 2022/23 season, the teams exchanged high-scoring draws.

My prediction: Double chance on Brentford and total over 1.5 goals
