As part of one of Sunday's matches of the 1st round of the Championship of England, the players of Leicester and Brentford will clash face to face. Which of the opponents will get the victory in this match? Our sports portal gives a forecast for this meeting.
"Leicester"
"Foxes" last draw of the championship of England held a very good championship. The team finished on the eighth line in the standings, remaining without European Cup tournaments. But, despite such results, the club's management left Brendan Rodgers as head coach. His contract is valid until 2025. It is possible that it was thanks to the coaching decisions of the mentor that Leicester reached the semi-finals of the Conference League last season. In the summer off-season, the team played six friendly matches, in which the team played 4 meetings, won once and drew.
"Brentford"
"Brentford" took the 13th place in the last season of the English championship, and this is a very solid result, because the club entered the elite championship only in 2021. In the summer, the team is active in the transfer market. Christian Eriksen became a free agent, who moved to Manchester United. Among the acquisitions, it is worth highlighting Ben Mee and Thomas Strakosha. The club spent 36 million on the purchase of Aaron Hickey and Keane Lewis-Potter. During the off-season, seven friendly matches were held, in which the team won only twice.
Statistics and figures:
- "Leicester" - the favorite of the meeting;
- The Foxes have a 4-match winning streak;
- The Bees have a 3-match winning streak;
- The last face-to-face meeting of the rivals ended with a score of 2:1 in favor of Leicester.
Forecast
The Foxes played very solidly in the previous 5 games. The team won 5 victories in a row against the opponent. And in some cases, the Victorias were confident at all. I think it's worth taking advantage of the generosity of the bookmakers and betting in favor of the favorite.
