Newcastle vs Leicester, Monday 8pm, live on Sky Sports

Newcastle vs Leicester

Leicester's hope of causing an upset will be based on their ability to counter-attack with pace.

Dean Smith has certainly added more emphasis on direct attacking with Jamie Vardy and Harvey Barnes told to play very aggressively up against the defensive line. This is causing Leicester's offside numbers to spike and the markets haven't quite caught up with that increase as yet.

Since Smith took charge Leicester are averaging 3.8 offsides per game with them passing the three or more line in five of those six matches.

That bodes well for the chances of the three or more Leicester offside line landing in this one with a generous 6/4 available with Sky Bet.
