- Tottenham is a -1.5-goal home favorite against Leicester City.
- Leicester City has lost eight of its last nine EPL day matches.
- My Tottenham vs. Leicester City depends on the Tottenham Starting XI.
Spurs look to end a two-match losing streak and six-match league winless run on Sunday at home against Leicester City.
Tottenham quickly fell behind 3-0 at Everton on Matchday 22 and succumbed to a 3-2 defeat. That leaves Tottenham 15th in the league table, only eight points clear of relegation.
Leicester’s struggles continued with a 2-0 home loss to Fulham on Matchday 22. That marks seven losses in a row after two unbeaten to begin Ruud van Nistelrooy’s tenure.
Check out the Premier League odds and my Tottenham vs. Leicester City prediction.

Tottenham vs. Leicester City Prediction
Depending on the starting defenders for Tottenham, my Tottenham vs. Leicester City prediction is Tottenham Over 7.5 Corners (-115).
There’s a chance defensive reinforcements could arrive for Tottenham.
Both Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero missed an extended period from injury, though they could play on Sunday.
But if that duo, Dominic Solanke and Brennan Johnson all miss out, the confidence in this bet rises immensely.
Leicester are allowing 7.4 road corners per match, the second-highest figure in the Premier League. The last time they played Tottenham, Leicester allowed 12 corners.
This bet is equal parts a play on Tottenham as it is a fade of Leicester.
Spurs face a trip to Germany for the Europa League on Thursday before returning home for a Sunday match.
The last time Spurs traveled for a Thursday match and played on Sunday as home favorites, they fell behind 2-0 to Ipswich Town.
Spurs amassed 12 corners in that match, with 75% coming in the second half.
In their last match at Everton, Spurs similarly faced a deficit and notched eight corners.
Irrespective of market status, Spurs cleared this benchmark in 10 of 22 matches. However, they’ve notched at least seven corners in 15 of 22.
One slight concern does exist that could render this a better live betting opportunity, depending on game state.
Spurs are only 6-5 to the over against this number as a market favorite, including 1-4 over their last five.
Tottenham has cleared 5.5 corners in nine of those 11 matches, though. This could present a better live betting chance if they fall behind at halftime, like the match against Ipswich Town.
