At King Power Stadium on Saturday, Leicester and Aston Villa will clash, as both teams look to get the taste of defeat out of their mouths. Last weekend, despite playing well and dominating at times, Villa came unstuck against Arsenal, while Saturday's hosts couldn't pick up any points away against Fulham. As things stands, the Foxes are pointless, so getting something from this game is important, especially as some of their likely relegation rivals have seemingly winnable games.

Our Leicester vs Aston Villa Prediction

While the Foxes will be desperate to get something from this game, after making plenty of offensive headway against Arsenal, without quite applying the finishing touches to some great moves, the Villans will be looking at this game as an opportunity to shift through the gears. One Villa offensive player who ought to fancy himself to do some damage here is Leon Bailey. The Jamaican forward looked a clear threat last time out and it likely won't be long until he's back on the scoresheet. Given his data, he looks a little generously priced to score against newly promoted opponents. Our Best Bet: Leon Bailey to Score.
