Leicester vs Brighton Prediction & Betting Tips - FA Cup

Prediction published on 07/02/2021, 20:42 by Nella Wagah | Modified on 07/02/2021 at 20:47 in FA Cup Prediction

Four matches in the fifth round of the FA Cup feature Premier League teams going head to head. One of them will be Leicester City hosting Brighton. Both sides drew in their last league matches ahead of this and will be looking to seal this in 90 minutes. Leicester drew 0-0 with Wolves on Sunday to get a second straight clean sheet and keep a run of seven wins in the last 12 matches. The draw was the only match they failed to score in, in the last 12 matches and they have scored two goals or more in six of their last 10 matches. Brighton will be Leicester’s first Premier League opponent in the FA Cup. They are unbeaten in seven meetings with Brighton, and kept five clean sheets in the process.

Brighton are coming from a 1-1 draw with Burnley, having taken a first half lead but allowed their hosts back in. That result denied Brighton a third straight win, as they continue with their resurgent form. They have three wins and three clean sheets in the last five matches and are unbeaten in their last six matches, with four wins. A big factor in Brighton’s improvement has been their defence, and six of their last seven matches have ended in under 2.5 goals. They go here unbeaten in the last three away matches. While they have been tight in defence, they have also not scored a lot. Brighton have managed to score more than a goal in just two of their last 11 away games. They lost 3-0 to Leicester in December and will be hoping for a better outing this time.

Our Leicester vs Brighton Prediction

Leicester have dominated Brighton in their recent meetings and go to this game with a superior run. They have scored in 11 of their last 12 matches and got two or more goals in six of their last 10 matches. Brighton have not been very expressive in attack and are low scorers. That is what could make the difference here. Leicester may not have their key man, Jamie Vardy but are still potent in attack and will be a good pick for a win here.

Prediction :

Leicester wins the match
