Leicester continue to impress everyone this season and are actually the best candidates to challenge Liverpool for the title. They will look to extend their tremendous winning streak on Saturday when they will host Norwich. Norwich have found some goals lately but not the points they are looking for.

Norwich (3-11-2) are coming off a really frustrating 2-1 home loss against Sheffield United, in a match where they actually took an early lead. They have now scored in four consecutive matches but have grabbed just four points in that span (1-2-1). Norwich have slid to the 19th spot of the league table with 11 points, four inside the red zone. They have been awful on the road so far (1-6-1), scoring just four goals.

Leicester (12-2-2) were really good in their away match against Aston Villa last week, where they scored twice in each half to eventually win by 4-1. They have now won nine consecutive matches in all competitions and eight for the Premier League alone. The Foxes are still sitting at the 2nd spot of the league table with 38 points, still six behind Liverpool and now six ahead of Manchester City. They are undefeated at home so far (7-0-1), conceding just four goals in the process.

Leicester won both matches when the two teams last met in the 2015/16 season, but Norwich have fared well in this venue over the years (3-2-1). Even so, Leicester have been tremendous so far and have a solid defense at home, while Norwich struggle to score goals on the road. This looks like a home win with a clean sheet.
