Leicester vs Aston Villa Bet Builder Tips

Aston Villa were beaten 2-0 by Arsenal last weekend but they had chances of their own. Unai Emery will be keen for his side to find their shooting boots here and they should have enough to get past Leicester. The last time the Villains visited the King Power Stadium they won 2-1.

Leicester have forced the sixth most fouls in the Premier League so far this season with their opponents averaging 13 so we are backing Amadou Onana and Youri Tielemans to make at least two fouls here. They both hit this mark in the recent defeat against the Gunners.
