Game Analysis

  • A heavy favourite, with the price to match. Leicester is the shortest price on a book of 1.37 / 4.5 / 7 (1 / X / 2), an implied 66.7%. Across the three outcomes the book reads 66.7% / 20.3% / 13.0% on an overround of 9.5%.

  • In the league table Leicester sit 13th on 15 points (4W 3D 4L) with Wigan 24th on 7 points (2W 1D 8L).

  • Leicester read L-W-W-L-L-W across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (3W 0D 3L) — patchy.

  • Wigan read L-L-W-L-W-L across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (2W 0D 4L) — poor.

  • Head to head the record reads 2-1-0 — Leicester wins, draws, then Wigan wins. Their last meeting finished Leicester - Wigan: 2-0.

  • Our last-six model flags 1 qualifying strike here. Reading Leicester first, then Wigan, out of their last six: O 2.50 6 and 3.

  • Leicester lean hardest on Alex McCarthy (9.5), Luke Thomas (9.5), Will Alves (9.5) on our Player Index — how much of the side's football each man accounts for, out of 10. It measures involvement and cover, not performance.

  • Wigan lean hardest on Jensen Weir (9.5), Reggie Walsh (9.5), Joe Whitworth (9.0) on our Player Index — how much of the side's football each man accounts for, out of 10. It measures involvement and cover, not performance.

  • The read: Leicester at 1.37 is short enough that the value, if there is any, sits on the handicap or in the goals market rather than the outright.
