Southampton vs Leicester prediction

In that league game the other day, relegation-threatened Leicester City took a remarkable 3-0 lead inside half an hour before Southampton then, somehow, came from 3-0 down to win by four goals to three with a last gasp winner and a remarkable late turnaround to push the Foxes closer towards a return to League One.

Tonda Eckert had a very good start to life as Southampton boss but Saints have drifted since then, albeit they remain in a strong position to launch a late push for the play-offs. Leicester, on the other hand, appear to be in a bit of a mess with that 3-0 lead they had completely undeserved in the first place down on the south coast.

With their home advantage, Southampton will be expected to win this one quite comfortably, especially with their home advantage, against a Leicester side in crisis.
