Wednesday's Premier League predictions including Brentford vs. Man United

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for both of today's Premier League fixtures - Leicester vs. Tottenham and Brentford vs. Manchester United.

On the back of an EFL Cup exit at the hands of Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur will look to bounce back upon their return to Premier League action on Wednesday, as they travel to the King Power Stadium to take on Leicester City.

With Antonio Conte still yet to suffer a league defeat as Spurs manager, the London club can climb back into the top five of the English top-flight table with a victory, while their hosts sit 10th, having not played a league game since the turn of the year.

We say: Leicester City 1-2 Tottenham Hotspur


While both sides are battling with squads far from full strength, Conte's team arguably have more of their stars available, and they should have enough to get over the line on Wednesday.

With the Foxes potentially rusty from a lack of action and the visitors battling to leapfrog Arsenal, we predict a narrow away win.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Since this article was published, this game has been called off due to a coronavirus outbreak in the Manchester United squad. A new date for the game will be confirmed in due course.

Manchester United will travel to Brentford on Tuesday evening knowing that a victory would see them move into fourth position in the Premier League table.

The Red Devils are currently fifth in the division, one point behind fourth-placed West Ham United, while Brentford sit 10th courtesy of a 2-1 win over Watford on Friday night.

We say: Brentford 1-2 Manchester United

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
