Southampton vs Leicester City Prediction

In their previous meeting earlier this season, Leicester won 2-3 on the road. Leicester has won their last three overall meetings against Southampton, and are 4-1 in their last 5 meetings at home. Over is 6-1 in their last 7 meetings and 3-0 in their last 3 meetings in King Power Stadium.

In this Southampton vs Leicester City Prediction, Leicester is coming as +130 home favorites. Both teams have already been relegated and have nothing to play for. They have also been struggling mightily, as they are a 2-20 combined record in their last 22 games.

Those two teams are the worst in the Premier League in terms of scoring, with 1.52 goals per game combined. Leicester has forgotten how the back of the net looks like, as they have been scoreless in 9 of their last 10 games, and I don’t see their offense catching fire in a meaningless game. Take the under 2.5 goals.
