Brentford should be confident that they can secure three points when they host Leicester at the Brentford Community Stadium this weekend, as the visitors are currently on a five-game loss streak. Leicester are in serious trouble going into the final stage of the season, as the possibility of life in the Championship awaits them.
The Foxes will have to heavily rely on their star man, James Maddison, if they are to stay up this season. It is harsh to describe a club as a one-man team, however, almost everything positive that Leicester do on the pitch goes directly through the number 10. Maddison has fourteen goal contributions in eighteen starts which is an absolutely incredible record. The attacking midfielder has also registered a goal or an assist in four of the five times he has faced Brentford whilst at Leicester.
Brentford also have a star man who has an abundance of goal contributions this season, in the form of Ivan Toney. The forward has scored 16 goals in the league and has registered four assists. Toney was recently called up to the England squad, so the number 17 will be going into this weekend’s tie with a spring in his step.
Last time the two sides faced, Toney got on the scoresheet and Maddison registered an assist. The corner aspect of this bet also won in the last meeting and also the last time Brentford hosted Leicester.
