West Brom vs Leicester prediction
Following the surprise appointment of Ryan Mason over the summer, for what was his first managerial role, West Bromwich Albion did start this campaign reasonably well. However, the Baggies do now come into this one on the back of back-to-back losses against Derby County and then Middlesbrough since the international break.
Leicester City have perhaps surprised many by enjoying some reasonable results at the start of this season under the management of former Queens Park Rangers boss Marti Cifuentes. However, their performance level has been underwhelming and the Foxes come into this one on the back of a goalless draw with Coventry City last weekend.
Leicester will head to The Hawthorns seeking to set about West Brom’s possession-based approach with an aggressive, pressing intensity, and that should disrupt Albion and make Leicester favourites for this one.
West Brom vs Leicester tip: Double chance – Leicester to win or draw
