Liverpool F.C. vs Leicester City F.C. Prediction 30 December 2022

The Premier League matchday 18 will give us an interesting confrontation between Liverpool and Leicester.

Three successive victories against Tottenham (2-1), Southampton (3-1) and Aston Villa (3-1) helped Liverpool to stay on the sixth line of the standings with 25 points and a goal difference of 31-18. But back in late October, the Reds lost to underdogs Nottingham (0-1) and Leeds (1-2), significantly reducing their chances of getting into the top 4.

At the same time, Leicester declassed Wolverhampton 4-0, Everton 2-0 and West Ham 2-0 away, while at home there were weak-willed fiascos 0-1 against Manchester City and 0-3 against Newcastle. So far, the Foxes are closer to the fight for survival than to European competition, as evidenced by their current thirteenth place with 17 points and a 25-28 goal statistic.

Today's Liverpool are an order of magnitude stronger than Leicester, but due to problems in defense, they risk not keeping their goal intact. We predict a productive match with the success of the home team.
