Leicester City Win • 1.64

I can't see anything but an easy Leicester win because Huddersfield are reeling off defeat after defeat. They were 3-1 up against West Ham and still lost.

I like the way Brendan Rodgers has turned things around. They have the confidence to go at teams. Bournemouth are a dangerous outfit with pace on the counter-attack and Leicester opened the game up and said 'go on then, you have a shot and we have a shot'. They are confident, they have energy and pace.

Will they get seventh? It's like predicting the top four, it's hard. Whoever loses the FA Cup semi-final on Sunday between Watford and Wolves will have to pick themselves up because it will be a massive hangover. It's a once-in-a-lifetime chance for these teams and to get into the semi-final and not be playing against a team in the top six comes around very rarely. Whoever loses I don't see finishing seventh.

Leicester City Win • 1.64

Leicester are rejuvenated in the fact Brendan Rodgers has brought in a feel-good factor. He has given care and attention to those who may not like the style, but he will be telling the youngsters that he can and will improve them. Youri Tielemans is a very good player and fits into the system well. Wilfred Ndidi will improve a lot. Harry Maguire, Wes Morgan and Jamie Vardy are the foot soldiers in this team with Kasper Schmeichel. Those three, minus Maguire, have won the Premier League and can be there for a long time if they want to be. They will give Brendan the time and it is no surprise Vardy and James Maddison are scoring.

It is a bit like Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at Manchester United. It's as though who they have somebody who they identify with. Huddersfield are planning for next year and they will turn out with good vocal support as always, but Leicester will see them off.

Leicester City Win • 1.65

It is difficult to know what Huddersfield manager Jan Siewert should do now his side have been relegated. Does he think about who might leave in the summer and look at some fringe players for next season? Possibly.

Or could it be a situation where he keeps playing his strongest XI and, now the pressure is off them completely, the Terriers will start to play and suddenly look like a different team.

Whatever Siewert decides, this is a tough game for them. Leicester have won their past three matches under Brendan Rodgers, and with a bit of luck he could easily have won his first game in charge, against Watford, too.
