Prediction

  • Leicester responded well after going behind against Norwich on Monday afternoon with goals from Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Stephy Mavididi and Jamie Vardy rounding off the comeback.
  • That result will come as a major relief to the Foxes, who had won just one of their previous six.
  • Birmingham took a giant step towards Championship survival in gameweek 40 as Jay Stansfield's second-half goal proved enough to claim all three points against play-off contenders Preston.
  • Gary Rowett's side had lost four league games on the spin before that game, but are now two points clear of the relegation zone.
