THE PREDICTION
Wolves ended a run of eight Premier League games without a win last time out after coming from behind to beat Arsenal 2-1, after the Gunners were reduced to ten men right at the end of the first half. Manager Nuno Espirito Santo will be hoping that this victory can reignite Wolves’ Premier League campaign, but they face a tough task backing it up against high flying Leicester. The Foxes bounced back from defeat vs Leeds last weekend with a comfortable 0-2 triumph away at Fulham in midweek and they’ll be hoping for a similar story here. Matches between Wolves and Leicester are normally close affairs, with just one goal scored in the last three Premier League encounters between the two sides. A similar story is expected here, with the hosts expected to set up cautiously in a bid to counter the threat posed by Leicester’s creative outlets such as James Maddison and Youri Tielemans, so consider under 2.5 goals scored.
