A Sports Betting Pick by ArmchairPunter
Football : England: Championship
Venue: King Power Stadium
Saturday 13th December 2025, 1500hrs (GMT)
Leicester City return to Championship action on Saturday afternoon looking to build on a small but welcome uptick in form as they prepare to host an in-form Ipswich Town side at the King Power Stadium.
The Foxes have taken four points from their last two matches — a morale-boosting 3-1 victory over Derby County followed by a hard-fought 2-2 draw at Bristol City — results which should give Marti Cifuentes’ men renewed confidence heading into the weekend.
Despite those encouraging displays, Leicester’s broader form remains a concern. The Foxes have secured just three wins from their last eleven league games, a run that also includes three draws and three defeats, highlighting a lack of consistency that continues to frustrate their supporters.
Home form has been particularly underwhelming, with Leicester managing only one win from their previous seven fixtures at the King Power Stadium — a statistic Cifuentes will be desperately keen to improve.
Visitors Ipswich Town, meanwhile, make the trip to the East Midlands in excellent spirits after climbing into 4th place in the Championship.
Kieran McKenna’s side are beginning to look like genuine promotion contenders once again, having suffered just one defeat in their last ten league outings. That solitary setback came via a narrow 2-1 loss at Oxford United, but the Tractor Boys have otherwise been exceptional, amassing six wins and three draws during this impressive run.
Ipswich have also shown solid resilience away from home, losing only once in their last five road games, and their balanced, high-tempo style of play is likely to pose a significant threat to a Leicester side still searching for stability.
With momentum firmly behind them, the visitors appear the more likely of the two sides to take maximum points on Saturday afternoon.
The Betting Verdict
Leicester’s home struggles and Ipswich’s strong recent form point towards the visitors having the edge here.
The Pick :
Leicester City 1-1 Ipswich Town
