Leicester City hosts Brighton & Hove Albion in round 12 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, December 13th at King Power Stadium (Leicester)
The intermediate fourth place in the standings is a good result for the team from Leicester. However, Rogers and his players could have gained a ticket to the Champions League in the last season. Now the Foxes are trying to fix that failure. At the same time, the team performs well in the Europa League, where it has already guaranteed itself the promotion to the playoff round. In the last three matches in the Premier League, the club lost twice (to Liverpool and Fulham) and coped with Sheffield (2:1). In the summer, the Foxes made several good-quality transfers, signing contracts with Fofana and Castagne and loaning Cengiz Under. All the leaders of the team remained in the team - Maddison, Barnes, Vardy, Tielemans, Caglar, and Schmeichel.

Modern Seagulls are fighters for survival with good chances to stay in the elite. To do this, Brighton needs to try to score points in each round, which will allow the team to keep a comfortable lead over competitors. Potter's men take an intermediate 16th place in the standings, outranking the relegation zone by five points. In the last five Premier League matches, the team lost only once (to Tottenham). Brighton's game has a balance between defense and attack, and it is multiplied by the level of players. The team’s configuration corresponds to the status of the middle peasant of the Premier League. Graham Potter has several good performers with extensive experience at the level of the English elite (Dunk, Ryan, Bissouma, Welbeck, Lallana, Maupay, and Webster).
It will be a rather difficult match for the home team, as the men of Rogers have lost their optimal shape. Leicester is the favorite of the confrontation and has a good line-up, which gathered players with striking individual characteristics. Brighton prefers a counterattacking style in confrontations with the giants of English football. With a high degree of probability, fans will witness high scoring rates.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.25 goals scored
