Manchester City vs Leicester Betting Tips and Predictions: Man City

City’s home record of late is very un-City like, they’ve dropped points in the Champions League at home to Shakhtar Donetsk drawing 1-1 and lost to city rivals Man United 1-2 in their most previous home league match. Worryingly, they were by far the second best team against United, they were hotly tipped to beat United again but United’s tactics were spot on and they came out on top.

City very much have history on their side here, over their 38 league meetings the home side have won 22 and lost just 8. Those 38 matches have seen 3.71 goals on average. City are, of course, in great goal scoring form, averaging 2.75 goals per home league match and conceding 1.0.

In team news, David Silva and John Stones could make their returns here and Sergio Aguero is back in training as well.
