Leicester stand at the top of the table and they are one of the main candidates to win the title and make the biggest surprise in the European football this season. In the previous round Leicester City took only one point against West Ham 2-2 and now the difference between Leicester City and Tottenham is only 5 points. Home side have to win this game in order to stay in a race for the title, because in the last three rounds they have very tough opponents. After this game, Leicester will play against Manchester United at Old Trafford, after that they will host Everton, while in the last round they will play against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. They have alteady beat Swansea in the first half of the season 0-3 and now they are playing upfront their supporters and want another win. Big blow for home team is the absence of their top scorer Jamie Vardy, who is out due to suspension.

Swansea stand at the 14th position and they still have a chance to relegate, but they are in the safe zone and it’s hard to believe that they will move in the Championship. After three matches in which they stay unbeaten, Swansea was defeated in the previous round when Newcastle smashed them 3-0. If they beat Leicester today they will definitely avoid relegation, but even if they lose it won’t be a catastrophe. However, they will be fully motivated and do their best in order to stay unbeaten. Visitors are not playing impressive on away ground, but they scored at least one goal per match in 8 of their last 9 matches in all competitions. Home team have very good defence and it will be very hard for Swansea to break it and hit the net.

Leicester vs Swansea injuries and suspensions

Home team miss their top scorer Jamie Vardy (34/22 f) who was sent off in the last match against West Ham, so Ulloa will replace him and join Okazaki in the attack. On the other side, visitors have full squad available for this game.

Leicester vs Swansea possible lineups

Leicester: Schmeichel; Simpson, Morgan, Huth, Fuchs; Mahrez, Drinkwater, Kante, Albrighton; Okazaki; Ulloa.
Swansea: Fabianski; Rangel, Fernandez, Williams, Taylor; Cork, Fer; Ayew, Sigurdsson, Montero; Paloschi.

Leicester vs Swansea Prediction

Home side are under pressure and they have to win this game. Without their key player, Vardy, it will be very hard to score, but without any doubt they are favorites to win this game. I expect very tough match between Leicester vs Swansea and not many goals.

Leicester vs Swansea Betting Tip: under 2.5 goals @ 1.73 (Bet365)
