Saturday’s clash between Leicester City and Chelsea will open round 12 of the new Premier League campaign. The Foxes do not seem to be at their sharpest, failing to win the last four games in all competitions and, as a result, the bookies see them as underdogs in this encounter. Talented midfielder Facundo Buonanotte is banned for the match, while Bobby De Cordova-Reid is a major doubt. 

The Blues, on the other hand, shared the spoils with their local rivals Arsenal before the international break. Chelsea are eager to stay in the Champions League berth and seeing that Enzo Maresca can count on key players for Saturday’s matinee, we predict that the visitors are going to pick up all three points from the match. Star player Cole Palmer should be fit for the King Power Stadium clash where Chelsea defeated Leicester 3-1 last time out in the Premier League.

Score Prediction Leicester 1-3 Chelsea
