Two teams with an interesting recent history in the Premier League face needing to put their seasons on track. Leicester City and Aston Villa need to take points from early on, so we are sure that sparks will fly on the pitch.

The Foxes recently lost against Fulham 2-1, their first in the season.

Villa also comes from getting its first loss, against Arsenal at Villa Park by 0-2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Bet on Leicester City?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Leicester City comes from a draw and a loss so far in its start and is at the 15th spot. Now they return to the King Power stadium with the need to win.

The Foxes know that the recent trend for Premier League-promoted teams is to go down immediately, so they need to show that, this time, it will be different for them. However, the club’s financial difficulties have further compounded their issues, preventing them from making significant reinforcements to their squad.

In their last match, they were hit early by Smith-Rowe, the new star signing of the Cottagers, but recovered before halftime thanks to Wout Faes. Their efforts were futile still, as Alex Iwobi sealed the deal. In favor of Leicester, even as visitors, they put up quite a fight and never relinquished the possession.

Jamie Vardy should keep his place up front despite his under-par performance in London, while Conor Coady and Patson Daka remain in the recovery room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Bet on Aston Villa?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The visitors are placed slightly higher at the 12 spot, as they started on a win and then lost their second clash. Considering their spending, their league position last season, and that they will play the Champions League, Aston Villa should aspire to, at least, push for first place in the first half of the season, just like the last time. However, things don’t seem to be the case yet.

They had a promising start to their Premier League campaign.<\/a> Against West Ham as visitors, they looked like a superior team most of the time and put the Hammers against the rope for long stings of the match.

Now, against Arsenal last weekend, their display was much better than the result. As Matty Cash has joined Tyrone Mings in the recovery room, former Crvena Zvezda right-back Kosta Nedeljkovic should start against Leicester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Final Betting Analysis: Leicester City vs. Aston Villa <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All is not perfect at Villa Park. Defensive concerns have emerged, particularly regarding Matty Cash. The right-back has struggled with both form and fitness, raising questions about the depth of Villa\u2019s defensive options.

However, in this clash against Leicester City, we believe that the visitors’ pacey forwards are capable of exploiting the break. We are more than tempted to place our bets on Ollie Watkins and Co. this time.

We’ll go for a 1-2 victory for the Villians.<\/strong>

Go for a victory for the Birminghan-based team at 1.809. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $80.9 for a total payout of $180.9.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
