Bristol City v Leicester

Bristol City vs Leicester Preview

Despite recording a welcome and desperately needed three points by way of a 1-0 home win against Swansea City recently, Bristol City were unable to build upon that result when The Robins were dealt a 2-0 defeat away from home at West Brom last time out in the Championship, while Leicester City's seemingly unstoppable march back into the Premier League has been checked in recent weeks as The Foxes have managed to collect just one win from their last five games overall.

Bristol City's 2-0 defeat at The Hawthorns against West Brom also became the west country outfit's fifth defeat in six games in the English second tier following previous losses at the hands of QPR, Sheffield Wednesday, Cardiff City and Ipswich Town respectively, leaving Bristol City in 14th place in the Championship table.

The bigger picture doesn't look that bright either for Liam Manning's side as the hosts have managed to register just three wins from their last 14 matches overall with victories gained over Middlesbrough, Southampton and Swansea City whilst also slipping to eight defeats within this period as well.

Having picked up just two wins from their last seven games at Ashton Gate, The Robins look to have their work cut out despite Leicester City's recent lull in form.

Onto the visitors then, and Leicester City were toppled off the top of the Championship table by a rampant Leeds United outfit who have won 12 of their last 13 matches overall while Leicester City have managed to pick up just one win from their last five games overall.

That recent win came in the shape of a 1-0 win away from home at Sunderland but The Foxes were also dealt three defeats beforehand as the east midlands club succumbed to losses against the likes of Middlesbrough, Leeds United and most surprising of all, a 2-1 loss at home to lowly QPR.

That said, Leicester City have been dealt just the three defeats away from home throughout the whole of this season's Championship campaign as The Foxes suffered defeats at the hands of Middlesbrough, Coventry City and Leeds United, but Enzo Maresca's side have also picked up 13 wins within their total of 19 away games so far this season.

Bristol City v Leicester City Verdict

Considering Bristol City's poor form at the moment, Leicester City still look to have a decent chance of returning to winning ways here on Good Friday especially as the visitors have lost on the road on just three previous occasions whilst picking up a daunting looking 13 wins on their travels as well, thus making them a potentially dangerous opponent for a wobbling Bristol City side at Ashton Gate on Friday lunchtime.

Therefore, our main bet will be Leicester City win @ 2.40
