Tight defences and clear heads will be required to deliver us a winner, but we have faith in both sides to deliver just that. The stats and the odds below also suggest this is a strong tip.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think Leicester are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 49% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 1.70.
