Nottingham Forest enters this contest as firm favourites as they sit sixth in the Premier League with 61 points from 35 matches, a mere 40 points better off than their East Midlands rivals who have already been relegated back to the Championship.
In terms of head-to-head records, Nottingham Forest have won both of the last two meetings, with this season’s clash resulting in a 3-1 victory at the King Power Stadium back in October.
Nuno Espírito Santo’s men have the seventh-best home record in the Premier League as they have accumulated 31 points from 17 matches, while conceding just 13 times during those games. Leicester City’s away record is nothing short of embarrassing, as they have earned just nine points from 17 matches.
With Leicester scoring just 29 times in the Premier League and Forest having such a good defensive record at the City Ground, we are predicting that the hosts will win this game to nil.
Prediction: Nottingham Forest 2-0 Leicester City
