Welcome to our Leicester City vs Manchester City betting tips, prediction and odds analysis ahead of their Premier League encounter at the King Power Stadium on Saturday.
Manchester City are seemingly easing to the Premier League title which will mark their third triumph in four seasons under Pep Guardiola. Whilst the Cityzens have dominated most of their opponents this season, they will not face an easy game against the Foxes.
Leicester are looking for a top four finish this season and will fancy their chances of getting at least a point against the mighty City.

Prediction
Though Man City are in terrific form, their home defeats to Leicester and neighbours Manchester United in the league this season did prove that they are not totally invincible. I expect the Foxes to give the league champions in waiting a run for their money in this game and come away with a 1-1 draw.
Anytime goal scorers
Leicester City-Jamie Vardy- At 34-years-old, Vardy is still one of the best finishers in the league. If the City defence is caught napping, as it did against Manchester United in early March, the veteran will punish them and score.
Manchester City-IIkay Gundogan- The German has been City’s best player this season and proved a lot of his doubters wrong. Don’t bet against him to add to his 12 Premier League goals in this game.
Our Odds And Tips In Detail
Whilst Manchester City are a better team overall, Leicester will give them a run for their money at the King Power Stadium. The Foxes will also know that they have what it takes to score against and compete with Guardiola’s charges, having beaten them convincingly earlier this season.
I expect a 1-1 draw.
