Leicester vs Chelsea Betting Tips

Leicester City are a big betting price to win their Premier League clash against Chelsea on 19 January and our prediction is that they’ll land at least a point from their clash against their London opponents at the King Power Stadium.
Brendan Rodgers’ side are six points higher than their opponents at the time of writing and the teams have played enough of the season to imply that they could well be the superior team come the end of the campaign.
Bet on Leicester to Get a Positive Result Against Chelsea
While some might not be prepared to take the best betting odds about a home win, our tip is to look at betting on the Foxes when it comes to the Asian Handicap betting market and you can get attractive odds about Leicester with half a goal start.
The main downside with betting on Leicester is that you have to take into account that their away form has been better than the performances at the King Power Stadium, although the attacking verve of James Maddison and Harvey Barnes could cause problems for a Chelsea side who have been conceding several goals recently.
Can Chelsea Still Challenge For Title?
Chelsea are the betting favourites to win this match and appeared to be going great guns until the London side crashed and burned during the month of December, although a win in this clash could put Frank Lampard’s side back on course.
N’Golo Kante and Ben Chilwell will return to their former club hoping to engineer a victory and it might be that Lampard puts his faith in the reliable Olivier Giroud who seems a better bet to fire the team to victory than Timo Werner.
Even so, this could be a tightly-fought clash and we’re expecting Leicester to give a good account of themselves as they did when drawing 2-2 with Manchester United.
