THE PREDICTION
Fulham surprised many when they beat Leicester 1-2 in the reverse fixture between these two back in November. Unfortunately for the Whites, that was the last time they tasted victory with Scott Parker’s side having not won in their last ten Premier League matches since that triumph at the King Power Stadium. Leicester are coming off the back of a 1-3 defeat at home to Leeds that has seen them lose ground on league leaders Man City. Whilst the Foxes remain in the top four, they’ll be aware that they cannot afford many more slip ups if they wish to remain in those coveted Champions League spots. The absence of both mercurial striker Jamie Vardy and midfield enforcer Wilfred Ndidi to injury are big blows for Leicester as proven against Leeds. Whilst recent results haven’t been to their liking, Fulham have the tools to take advantage of such injuries and are more than capable of picking up at least a point at Craven Cottage, so consider the hosts double chance.
