Leicester City Porto betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This is a match between two good teams that are among the big teams in their countries. Porto has always been one of the most traditional teams in Portugal, while Leicester came only to highlight internationally last season, when they won the English title in an amazing campaign. Although they hasn't been doing a great national championship, Leicester continues with a good team, and is able to beat Porto, until for the fact of playing at home. But the draw is also a likely result.
