Kick-off 3pm Saturday

Brighton continue to impress at the Amex and are capable of earning a share of the spoils against Leicester in a battle between two mid-table sides.

Leicester have a three-point lead over their hosts but are without injured defender Harry Maguire and are sweating on the fitness of star striker Jamie Vardy.

The Foxes are unbeaten in three games but may consider a draw to be a decent result against a Seagulls side who have taken ten points from five home matches.

Recommendation
Draw
1pt 12-5 bet365
