Leicester City: 11/10
Nottingham Forest: 13/5
Draw: 9/4
Leicester are showing signs of revival under Eriksson, who has yet to lose at home since taking the manager’s job following the abrupt departure of Paulo Sousa after just a handful of matches. The Swede has been able to dip into the transfer market and he could have two new players in former England goalkeeper Chris Kirkland and the WBA stiker Roman Bednar. They may be missing Andy King, there most dangerous midfielder in front of goal. They do have plenty of goal scoring threats plus the battering ram of Steve Howard to apply up front.
Despite making frustrated noises about a lack of investment in players, Nottingham Forest are now showing signs of their play-off form under Billy Davies. Lewis McGugan is a constant scoring threat from midfield and a win at Cardiff underlined that they can be difficult to play away from home. Aaron Ramsey and Marcus Tudgay could also make debuts after their loan moves.
Two teams who have been in fairly decent form plus a local derby points to a tight game – we’re backing the 1-1 draw at 11/2 with Betfred. Just click on the link to place a bet and claim a free £50 bet.
