Bournemouth vs Leicester City prediction and betting tips on February 27, 2024
Game Prediction
The EFL Cup found its new owner on Sunday. And another such tournament in Britain is characterized only by the 1/8 mark so far. Bournemouth and Leicester City will play against each other on Tuesday. Should the hosts really be considered the favourite? The website contains the author’s prediction for the match on February 27, 2024.
Bournemouth hasn’t kept its fans happy for a long period of time
“The Cherries” became yet another English club that invited a Spanish specialist to the coaching position. To be more precise, this mentor is the Basque, Iraola, who has not renewed his contract with Rayo Vallecano, where everything worked out, for the sake of this challenge. Andoni had a long and hard time getting used to the Foggy Albion, but it seemed that everything began to work out at the end of autumn – the team’s performance was excellent. Still, as it often happens in a fairy tale, it all ended after Christmas. Then there were at most draws or even defeats again. There were no surprises in the battle against Manchester City on Saturday – the club lost to the champion with a 0-1 score. And only the cup tournament gave an opportunity to win further, since the team encountered very convenient opponents from a lower division. This time, it will also compete with a club from the Championship, but unconditionally the best of them.
Leicester City can afford to be distracted by the cup
“The Foxes” recently fought at the European arena, won titles and hoped, not without certain reasons, for 4th place. Generally speaking, they could not repeat Ranieri’s successes, but the fans did not believe that anyone would win this unique championship again. Gradually, the project fizzled out, and it all ended with the loss of a place in the Premier League in the previous spring and the departure of a number of leaders in the off-season. However, Maresca volunteered to solve the problem of climbing back from the Championship in a direct way – Vardy and the company became the leaders, increasing the dominance, quite quickly. The higher mentioned result allows the team to switch the focus of attention to the cup confrontation, although not everything works out in the previous rounds and Middlesbrough lost at the home arena. And then the club lost to one of the main pursuers – Leeds.
