Anticipated Showdown: Watford vs Leicester
The Premier League returns this weekend, and one of the intriguing matches is the encounter between Leicester City and Watford at the King Power Stadium.
Watford will be without Adalberto Penaranda due to a foot injury, a blow to their squad as they aim to challenge the top teams in the league between now and May. The Hornets have shown great moments throughout the season, but their success could be hampered by the quality of teams around them. However, they might strengthen in the January transfer window.
On the other hand, Leicester City, a brilliantly run club with a top-tier squad, are currently positioned in 9th place in the Premier League. They will be missing Harry Maguire due to a knee injury, and Rachid Ghezzal, Daniel Amartey, Vicente Iborra, and possibly James Maddison, who is returning from suspension, might also be doubts or ruled out.
In their last meeting, Leicester City emerged victorious with a 2-0 win against Watford. The prediction for this game is a Leicester win, but Watford's unpredictable tactics could make for an exciting match.
Watford have won two, drawn one, and lost three of their last six games, while Leicester City have won one, drawn four, and lost one. In the overall head-to-head standings, Leicester leads Watford 28-20 with 17 draws.
Both teams have aspirations to break into the top six of the Premier League. For Watford, the return of Jose Holebas and Sebastian Prodl to training could strengthen their squad.
The best odds for this game can be found at bet365, with odds of 5/4 in favour of Leicester City. The game will be played at Leicester's King Power Stadium, making for an exciting atmosphere.
Watford's W. Smallbone and L. Jensen are likely unavailable due to injuries, but no specific injury information for Leicester City was found in the search results.
This promises to be an exciting match between two ambitious teams, and football fans are eagerly waiting for the return of the Premier League action.
