Leicester City vs Brighton & Hove Albion

King Power Stadium is the venue as Leicester City and Brighton & Hove Albion go head-to-head in a mid-table Premier League clash.

Leicester City set an unwanted Premier League record last time out, turning a 2-1 lead into a 3-2 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur despite being in front at 94:52 on the clock. A lack of consistency has seen Brendan Rodgers’ men alternate between victories and defeats across their last five Premier League outings (W2, L3) as they continue to struggle in a mid-table lethargy. Back to the King Power, where they’ve won three of their last four league matches (L1), the ‘Foxes’ will be looking to build on their impressive home league record versus Brighton (W11, D3, L3), last losing such clash in April 2014. What’s more, Leicester have kept a clean sheet in 56% of their Premier League meetings with this opposition, which has been the case in two of their last three home league games.

On the other hand, Brighton & Hove Albion came from a 1-0 HT deficit to hold Chelsea to a 1-1 stalemate at home last time out, making it three draws from four Premier League matches (W1). Indeed, Graham Potter’s men have established themselves as the ‘stalemate kings’ this season, seeing more levelled scores (11) than any other Premier League side, which stands for 52.38% of their league games so far. The ‘Seagulls’ have only lost one of their ten top-flight fixtures on hostile turf this term (W3, D6), a record that is second to none in the Premier League. But after failing to get on the scoresheet in three of their last four competitive visits to the King Power (D2, L2 – 90mins only), Brighton will not feel comfortable ahead of this trip.
