England Premier League
Saturday 5th May 2018
Kick off at 3pm BST
Venue: King Power Stadium
Match Preview:
The last time Leicester won a game it was March and they have now gone 4 games without a win, which includes losing 3 of their 4 games. The team seem to have lost all shape and motivation now that their Premier League status is safe.
Last weekend was a culmination of that as they were smashed 5-0 at Crystal Palace. Home form has seen just 1 loss in the past five games but four of those have been draws and the club have not won at home in almost 4 months. Maybe it's just coincidence but their dip in form all seemed to come about after the Mahrez to Manchester City speculation, and now they appear to be stuck in a rut.
West Ham are in 15th place and are just three points from the drop. The Hammers have had to face some tough fixtures lately and have lost their last two games against Arsenal and Manchester City shipping 8 goals in the process. After this game they have two home matches but those will be tricky matches against Manchester United and Everton so they need to get something here.
Away from home David Moyes side have been very poor with just 2 wins all season and 1 point gained from their last 15.
