Leicester v Newcastle
Betting Strategy
Back (Both Teams to Score) No for 2 units @ $2.14
Leicester are going to be relegated again and will face a rejuvenated Newcastle side, brimming with confidence, and in a real fight with Chelsea and Manchester City for a Champions League place. To see $1.53 for Newcastle looks very generous against a side that has lost seven straight home games and not scored a single goal in those games. They have conceded 18 goals in those seven games. In total they have lost 10/15 home games and whilst they scored in their first eight at home, they have drawn blanks in each game since. Newcastle have five away wins from their past seven games, and the two losses were recent (in the past three away games) to Liverpool (0-2) and Manchester City (0-4). The five away wins were against very poor teams in West Ham, Southampton, Tottenham, Manchester United and Ipswich. But Leicester are worse than all of those sides, and rather than back Newcastle at $1.53, I am going to back No in the Both Teams to Score market at a very generous $2.14. When you consider Leicester have not scored in seven games at home, that is a great value bet.
