West Ham United v Leicester City Odds and Match Preview
Kick-off: 8pm UK Time, Thursday 27th February 2025
Hot on the heels of their hard-fought win against city rivals Arsenal, West Ham United play host to relegation-threatened Leicester City on Thursday evening, the hosts looking to avenge their 3-1 defeat to the Foxes at the King Power Stadium in December.
First home defeat
West Ham put to an end a four-game winless run and subjected Arsenal to their first home defeat of the season in the Premier League when running out 1-0 winners at the Emirates Stadium at the weekend, Jarrod Bowen scoring what proved to be the winning goal at the stroke of half time. This was the second win for Graham Potter since he took the reins at West Ham although his troops still sit in 16th position in the league standings, goal difference separating them from 15th-placed Manchester United after 26 rounds of fixtures. On home soil, the Hammers have triumphed in eight of their last nine meetings with newly promoted sides and confidence will be high in the home camp ahead of this midweek affair.
Dealt another blow
Ruud Van Nistelrooy enjoyed a win over West Ham in his first game in charge of Leicester City, however since then he has overseen ten top-flight defeats from twelve outings, including defeats in the last six on home soil with an aggregate scoreline of 15-0. The chances of Leicester making a swift return back to the Championship look high and their bid to remain in the Premier League were dealt another blow at the weekend with a 4-0 thrashing by Brentford. The Foxes now sit in 19th position in the league standings with five points separating them from safety, therefore the omens aren’t looking good.
Defensively frail
West Ham will be in high spirits following their weekend win over the Gunners, while Leicester City are floundering on the back of some dismal results. A defensively frail Foxes will likely prove no match for the home side here and we’ll be siding with the Hammers brushing their relegation-threatened opponents aside with relative ease.
