Top 2 Brighton vs Leicester Picks for April 12
1. Brighton Handicap -1.5 goals (-121)
It has been a humbling few weeks for Brighton & Hove Albion. After narrowly losing on penalties to Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup quarterfinal, Brighton have since lost 3-0 to Aston Villa and 2-1 to Crystal Palace, per EPL betting tips. And whilst they will be without star center back Jan Paul van Hecke due to suspension, the Seagulls have the perfect chance to redeem themselves against Leicester City.
All signs point to all three promoted sides suffering relegation for the second straight campaign. Southampton lost their top-flight status the previous weekend, with the Saints sitting seven points behind Leicester and 10 behind Ipswich, who find themselves 12 points away from safety. The Foxes have been catastrophic this season and have lost nine matches in a row, per Brighton vs Leicester stats, with the mid-season appointment of Ruud van Nistelrooy only worsening their form.
Whilst Brighton have not quite made a brilliant impression under Fabian Hürzeler, they nevertheless sit ninth in the table and have taken care of business against lower-ranked sides, beating Ipswich 2-0 and Southampton 4-0 this year.
Leicester have lost seven of their last eight league matches by a two-goal margin (at least) and we’re backing that trend to continue in our Premier League betting picks.

2. Over 3 Goals (-102)
All signs point to this one being a fairly high-scoring affair on the South Coast. 10 of the last 11 Brighton matches have produced over 2.5 goals whilst each of Brighton’s last four meetings with Leicester have produced over 3.5 goals.
With the likes of Kaoru Mitoma and Danny Welbeck working their magic up top, we’re backing Brighton to make life a living hell for Leicester’s backline. We’ve already seen Brighton score three goals against Chelsea and Manchester United this year, as well as four goals against Norwich City and Southampton.
It seems yet another high-scoring matchup could be on the cards. We’re taking the Over in our soccer expert picks.
