    Leicester to return to form against West Ham

    On Saturday afternoon, Leicester City host West Ham at the King Power Stadium, as the visitors look to move away from the relegation zone.

    Leicester are ninth-place in the Premier Leaguee table after a four-game winless run in the top-flight, having suffered three defeats in the process. Last time out the Foxes suffered a 5-0 defeat at Crystal Palace.

    The Foxes have also been poor in defence of late in the Premier League, conceding at least two goals in three of their last four outings.

    The home side are unbeaten in seven games in all competitions against the Hammers, recording four wins in the process, though.

    Leicester City have failed to win in five Premier League games on home soil, although four of those games ended in draws. Their recent home games in the league have also been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six games.

    One win in seven Premier League outings has left West Ham just three points clear of the relegation zone, with three games remaining. In fact, the Irons have lost five of their last eight league outings.

    Last time out in the top-flight, David Moyes side suffered a 4-1 drubbing at Premier League champions Manchester City. The game was typical of the Hammers recent top-flight games, as it was high scoring with six of their last eight league games producing over 2.5 goals.

    West Ham recent away record in the Premier League has been poor of late, as they have failed to win in their last five league games on their travels, suffering four defeats in the process.

    The Irons recent away games in the league have been high scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six outings.

    Forebet predicts that the home side will record a victory in a low scoring encounter that could put West Ham in a dangerous position in the table.
