Bristol City vs Leicester City

In an attempt to get back to their winning ways, Leicester will visit Bristol City when English Championship play resumes. This matchday 39 match takes place on Good Friday at Ashton Gate. With 47 points and eight above the danger zone, the hosts are ranked 14th going into this round.

Amid a closely contested top-three race, the visitors are in second place with 82 points. Bristol City’s final game before the international break ended in a 2-0 loss against West Brom. Except for a 1-0 victory over Swansea, they had lost five of their previous six league games.

Leicester and Leeds are separated by just one goal, with Ipswich in third place trailing by one point. They continued their current downward trend going into the break with a 4-2 FA Cup loss to Chelsea, which came after a 2-2 Championship draw at Hull. In their final five league games, the Foxes could only muster one victory while suffering three losses.

Despite having the game in hand, this sequence caused them to lose the lead at the top and forced them to play catch-up. Direct promotion is guaranteed to the top two, and Leicester will probably continue to aim for that position above all others. Nevertheless, there is some bright light as the Foxes prevailed 1-0 in the rematch.

Verdict

The Foxes, who are currently second in the championship, have won 13 of their 19 league away games this season and have snapped a three-game losing streak with four points from their previous two games.

In contrast, the Robins have dropped three of their last four games in the second tier and have lost five of their previous six overall. In addition, they suffered a 1-0 loss at King Power Stadium in September. Backing a Foxes victory with a low score here today makes sense because Bristol City’s previous four home losses have all ended in 1-0 scores, and Leicester’s most recent away victory also came by the same score.

Picking a Foxes victory combined with a low-scoring game makes sense because Bristol City’s previous four home losses have all been by a 1-0 margin, and Leicester’s most recent away victory was also by a 1-0 margin.

The Foxes were held to a 2-2 draw at Hull City in their previous Championship fixture. They fell behind twice but showed great character to fight back, with Jamie Vardy netting a brace. One positive for Leicester City is that they have fared better on their travels and are unbeaten in eight of their last 10 away matches, claiming six wins in that run.
