Leicester vs Manchester City Betting Tips for a 17/2 Bet Builder

Leicester vs Man City bet builder tips and predictions for the lunchtime kick-off on Saturday 29th October including a player to score anytime and a Leicester player to go into the referee’s book. Leicester have steadied the ship somewhat after a terrible start to the season but they face the ultimate test now when Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City visit in the lunchtime game. They’ve won three and drawn one of their last five matches now and kept a clean sheet in four of the five matches. City have only won one of their last four matches in all competitions, drawing their two Champions League matches 0-0 and losing 1-0 at Anfield against Liverpool. Erling Haaland went off at half-time against Borussia Dortmund in midweek but we’re hoping he will be fit for this game. The previous Premier League fixture between the clubs saw Manchester City come out on top 6-3 at Etihad Stadium last season. Raheem Sterling led City with goals in the 25th and 87th minute. Kevin De Bruyne, Riyad Mahrez, Ilkay Gündogan, and Aymeric Laporte also found the net. James Maddison, Ademola Lookman, and Kelechi Iheanacho were on the scoresheet for the Foxes. Manchester City have got the better of Leicester of late with wins in three straight clashes, dating to April 2021. City have outscored the Foxes 9-3 during their winning streak. See our bet builder tip for the match below as well as reasons for each prediction on the clash.

Manchester City half-time/full-time

Leicester City have turned a corner in recent weeks, going unbeaten in their last three matches and climbing out of the relegation zone and into 17^th place. However, I don’t think they’ll have enough to cause Pep Guardiola’s Man City any problems this weekend. City are just two points behind league leaders Arsenal and have won eight of their 11 Premier League fixtures so far this season. In all but two of their 14 wins in all competitions this season, City have been winning at both half time and full time, and I expect them to do that in this one against a Leicester side that have won just three of their 12 Premier League fixtures.

Erling Braut Haaland to score anytime

This selection needs very little justification. Erling Haaland is the top scorer in the Premier League with 17 goals scored in the 11 games he has played so far. He has scored in all but one of City’s Premier League fixtures, and I think he will get at least another one in this fixture against Brendan Rodgers’ side, who have conceded 24 league goals already this season. Haaland was taken off at half-time against Borussia Dortmund during the week, but Pep Guardiola will be keen to have him in from the start as they look to close the gap on Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table.

Boubakary Soumare to be booked

Boubakary Soumare is the final addition to this bet builder, taking it to decent odds of 17/2 with Bet365. The Frenchman has picked up three yellow cards in the Premier League this season, and averages 1.69 fouls per game. Coming up against a very difficult Manchester City side, I expect him to make a number of fouls in this one and won’t be surprised to see him given his fourth booking of the season.
