My Prediction
Chelsea by 2Not gonna start this off with a folksy hello, because - surprise, surprise - we're here to talk about the impending matchup between Chelsea and Leicester City.
When analyzing the goalies of each team, Robert Sánchez of Chelsea rises above with a 6.70 rating and 9 saves, while Mads Hermansen of Leicester City counters with a 6.13 rating and 4 saves. Hermansen might want to shave off some of that five o'clock shadow because the shot-stopping advantage is firmly in Chelsea's court.
While Leicester City's players, namely Jamie Vardy with 1 goal off of 1 shot and a 64.5% accurate pass and Harry Winks with 2 shots on goal and an 89.1% accurate pass, have some decent numbers, Chelsea, on flip side, takes the cake. We've got Moisés Caicedo boasting a 7.52 rating, 1 goal, 1 shot on goal, and a fancy 89.9% accurate pass percentage. Pedro Neto and Nicolas Jackson do not fall behind either with 1 and 2 goals respectively.
Our friendly stroll through memory lane reminds us of the recent side show when Chelsea and Leicester City faced off in March of 2023, with Chelsea tip-toeing their way to victory with a 3-1 lead.
Regular season records are so-so for both teams - Chelsea at 5-4-2, and Leicester City at 2-4-5. Let's just say Chelsea has been visited by the win fairy a few more times this season.
Taking into account the recent games, Chelsea seems to enjoy sharing the spoils with 2 draw games, 2 wins, and only 1 loss in five games. On the other hand, Leicester City might be feeling slightly rugged with 1 win, 1 draw, and 3 losses in their recent matches.
If we incorporate our impeccable analysis skills and my uncanny charm, here's what we get:
