Manchester United chase defenders with Premier League experience

Vyom Chaudhary

One of the top priorities for Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solksjaer this summer is to fix up his leaky defence. Last season, not many United defenders manage to make a mark, and it appears that the club has decided to target defenders with Premier League experience this summer. Firstly, United have been strongly linked with Crystal Palace full-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka. United have already seen a £40m bid rejected by Palace, but they are hopeful that a deal can be reached soon. The English youngster is also said to be…

Vyom Chaudhary

Tottenham secured a top-four finish with a 1-0 home win over Newcastle United on Wednesday. Manager Mauricio Pochettino can now afford to rest some of the tired legs for the season-ending game with Leicester City at Wembley Stadium on Sunday. Spurs currently sit in the third spot with 74 points, and a win on Sunday will see them finishing in the same spot. The North London side failed to win any silverware for yet another season, but a top-four finish should be considered a success for Pochettino and his players.…

Vyom Chaudhary

Arsenal will travel to King Power Stadium to take on Leicester City on Wednesday evening. Both sides have nothing left to play for this season besides their pride, and we expect an open and exciting encounter with a number of youngsters featuring in both starting elevens. The Foxes have looked disjointed in the recent weeks, and it’s very obvious that Claude Puel’s players are suffering from the end-of-the-season syndrome. Leicester have picked up only a point from their last five games, and on the weekend, they lost 2-0 to West…

Can West Ham United take advantage and cause an upset at King Power Stadium on Saturday? The Foxes have picked up just one point from their last four games, and last week, they suffered an embarrassing 5-0 defeat at the hands of Crystal Palace.

Crystal Palace vs Leicester City – Betting Tips and Predictions

Vyom Chaudhary

Crystal Palace will go for three points against an out-of-form Leicester City at Selhurst Park on Saturday. Following a disastrous start to the season, the Eagles find themselves on the verge of securing their Premier League status. Palace are 14th in the table with 35 points. They have built up a five-point buffer between themselves and the bottom three. Another three points on Saturday would almost secure their safety. The Eagles have been in decent form and are undefeated in their last three games. Last weekend, they played a goalless…

Manchester United have a lot of ground to cover if they want to catch up with their neighbours Manchester City, who were crowned league champions on Sunday, next season. However, United manager Jose Mourinho doesn’t aim to splurge on signings in the summer to bridge that gap.

Vyom Chaudhary

Bottom-of-the-table West Bromwich Albion will face Leicester City at the Hawthorns on Saturday. It’s probably already too late for the Baggies this season, and a defeat on Saturday would most certainly see the exit of manager Alan Pardew. The Baggies are bottom in the table with 20 points, which puts them eight points behind the safety line. With only nine games left to play, it looks likes an impossible task for the Baggies, who have managed only three league wins this season. West Brom are currently on a six-game losing…

Liverpool vs Leicester City – Betting Tips and Predictions

Liverpool have been one of the best-attacking sides this season, and they once again demonstrated their attacking prowess with a 5-0 demolition of Swansea City on Boxing Day. It is at the back where Jurgen Klopp’s side have struggled, and the Reds have attempted to rectify that by completing the record-signing of Virgil van Dijk from Southampton. However, the Merseysiders would have to do without the Dutchman when Leicester City visit Anfield on Saturday. Nevertheless, the Reds are unbeaten in 14 games in all competitions, and we expect them to…
