Bet Builder preview

John McGinn over 1.5 shots

Since coming taking charge of Aston Villa, Steven Gerrard has allowed John McGinn to operate in a more advanced role and the midfielder had three shots in the recent match with Crystal Palace, scoring the Villans' second goal.

The Scotland international is at home playing further forward - he does so regularly for his national team - and has averaged 1.61 shots per 90 minutes this season.

Over 2.5 goals

Leicester’s defensive troubles have been well documented and ten of the Foxes’ 14 Premier League games this season have featured three or more goals.

Over 2.5 has also landed in two of Steven Gerrard’s first three games as Aston Villa boss so Sunday's clash promises to be an open encounter.

Two or more Leicester offsides

Only Burnley and Manchester United have been caught offside more times than Leicester this season and Jamie Vardy’s tendency to play on the shoulder of the last man means that he runs the risk of being caught offside.

With James Maddison in good form, expect Vardy to look to get in behind Villa's defence as many times as possible.
