Leicester vs Tottenham: Premier League Prediction Match Details
The first Monday night match of the 2024–25 season will see newly promoted Leicester City take on Tottenham at the King Power Stadium in Leicester City.
Leicester Preview & Form
The Foxes were relegated in the 2022–23 season but spent only one season in the Championship before returning to the Premier League after a brilliant run of results. Leicester were crowned champions of the 2023–24 English second-tier league with 97 points. They will look to build on this momentum in their first Premier League game.
Leicester has hired former Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper as they aim to maintain their impressive form in the top flight. However, their recent performance in the preseason games ahead of the Premier League has been poor, with the Foxes suffering three consecutive defeats. They were beaten by Palermo, Augsburg, and Lens. It’s worth noting that Leicester defeated Tottenham 4-1 in their last Premier League encounter at the King Power Stadium. However, they failed to score any goals in three straight friendly games.
Tottenham Preview & Form
Tottenham will aim to make further progress in the upcoming season as they seek to win their first major trophy since 2008. Spurs missed out on a top-four finish last season after a poor finish, earning only six points from a possible 21 in their final seven matches. They ended the 2023–24 season in fifth place with 66 points.
Spurs have bolstered their attacking options for the upcoming season with the addition of Dominic Solanke. Ange Postecoglou’s team enjoyed a four-match winning streak during their preseason games before suffering consecutive defeats to Bayern Munich.
Notably, during the preseason games, Tottenham’s attacking frontline was impressive, scoring at least one goal in each match.
