Liverpool vs Leicester City: Prediction

Both teams are coming into the match in a similar form are stay close in the Premier League standings with 4 points from the three matches. They will be keen to get a win here and judging by the performances in the opening weeks, this match could go either way. I will avoid betting on a winner here, I rather look at the goal markets.

Liverpool have plenty of problems at the back and failed to keep clean sheet in each of their three matches this season. While Leicester have also given plenty of easy chances in each of their matches. So looking at their attacking strength, this match could produce over 2.5 goals.
