Leicester vs Crystal Palace

Current streaks

Recent form

Leicester

Leicester City are experiencing a troubling run of form, having lost five consecutive Premier League matches before securing a resounding 6-2 victory against Queens Park Rangers in the FA Cup. The Foxes' league position is precarious, sitting 19th with just 14 points from 20 games. Their defensive frailties are evident, conceding an alarming 2.67 goals per game in their last six matches and failing to keep a clean sheet in their last 15 outings. Despite this, Leicester have been involved in high-scoring affairs, with 83% of their recent games seeing over 2.5 goals. The 4-0 drubbing by Newcastle United and the 6-2 FA Cup triumph stand out as particularly notable scorelines. While their league form is concerning, the emphatic cup win could potentially serve as a turning point for the struggling side.

Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, with two wins, two draws, and two losses in their last six matches. The Eagles' most notable result was a high-scoring 5-1 defeat to Arsenal in the Premier League, which contributed significantly to their goal difference of -2 over this period. Palace have been involved in several entertaining matches, with 67% of their games seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in 83% of fixtures. Despite their 15th position in the league, Palace have demonstrated resilience, securing a draw against Chelsea and a win over Southampton in their two most recent outings. Their attack has been relatively consistent, averaging 1.5 goals per game, but their defence has struggled, conceding 1.83 goals per match and managing only one clean sheet in their last six games.

Recent home/away form

Leicester

Leicester City's recent home form has been a mixed bag, with their last six games at the King Power Stadium yielding two wins, one draw, and three losses. The Foxes have struggled to keep clean sheets, conceding in all of these matches.

This result stands out as a significant outlier in terms of goals scored. Leicester have been involved in several high-scoring affairs, with 83% of their last six home games seeing over 2.5 goals.

Notably, Leicester are currently on a run of two consecutive home league defeats, having lost to Manchester City and Wolves without scoring.
