After the first game ended with the score of 2:2, Manchester City accepts Leicester at home.
Manchester City are currently in a great shape, holding the second spot although with a game more than the third Arsenal and 2 games more than the first Manchester United, record of W13 D6 L4.
Leicester are currently 13th in the Championship, with 36 points in 27 games, record of W10 D6 L11. The last time these two teams met was back in 2004 when the game ended here 2:2. Both teams have played a final in FA cup long long ago in 1969, which City won with 1:0.
However in the Premier League, since 1995 to 2003, when Leicester used to be in it, the visitors have won all 3 visits here. At home Leicester has recorded a loss and 2 consecutive draws against City in the last 3 games.

The profitable bets for this game are very limited. The home victory for Manchester City is priced only at 1.33. An asian handicap at -1.5 will raise it to 2.00 which is perfect for a profit, but very doubtful to happen at least considering the stats of 1 draw and 3 losses in the last 4 games here.
The Over 2.5 Goals bet is priced at 1.53, most likely because of the previous game , while the Under 2.5 Goals has good odds of 2.40
Personally I think that this game will be very equal, even though the bookmaker’s odds don’t make it look so. Due to the many draw games between those two teams I will most likely back the draw in this one as well and hope for the best. The bet is a bit risky but it’s very well worth it.
