Leicester have had a dip in form, taking one point from four games, but they played to a decent standard in Saturday's 2-1 loss at Liverpool and are likely to have better luck against Huddersfield.

Just three points separate the teams but that could widen over the rest of the season with Leicester targeting the top seven and Huddersfield solely focused on survival.

The Terriers have scored just eight away goals - half of them at ten-man Watford - and cannot match the firepower of the Foxes, who are the highest scorers outside the top six.

Recommendation
Leicester
1pt 4-6 general
