Leicester City vs West Bromwich Match Analysis and Prediction

Leicester City hopes to use their newfound success in the FA Cup to return to winning ways in the Premier League as they host West Brom. The match schedules for Thursday at King Power Stadium, with a kickoff at 10 pm.

The Foxes have two losses in their last two matches in the league that have them look behind their back, whereas West Brom continues their impressive relegation survival prospects with back to back wins.

First, Leicester City booked a spot in the FA Cup finals for the first time in 52 years against Manchester City. Thanks to in-form Iheanacho’s goal in the second half against Southampton on Sunday, that did the trick.

The finals scheduled for May 15, but that is a long time to get their top-four chances back on track in the league. Brenan Rodgers suffered successive losses against Manchester City and West Ham in their last two games to stop their momentum.

Moreover, the Foxes are third in the place while being one point above fourth-placed Chelsea and ten points from Manchester United. Last season’s repeat is a constant nightmare for Rodgers after dropping out on the final matchday.

In contrast, West Brom’s performances continue impressing after picking surprising wins over Chelsea and Southampton. The main catalyst for the rejuvenation sparks from their 5-2 win over Chelsea.
