We have to find a way of winning this match. 4 wins and at least 1 draw (probably 2) required but we need wins at this stage to build momentum

Merson fancies us:

West Brom v Leicester

This is my shock of the weekend, away win. If they win this game, they will definitely stay up. I know West Brom had plenty of shots against QPR, but letting in four goals at home to them is worrying.

It's a great time to play West Brom. They've been dragged back into the relegation fight. This is a game that Leicester must win, and that plays into their hands. They will always create chances and I fancy Jeff Schlupp to get on the scoresheet, he's got great pace.

PAUL PREDICTS: 1-2

Fingers crossed!
 
They could be under a bit of pressure, when you look at their remaining fixtures its almost a must win game for them

I'm rubbish at predicting results - but if it was City in the position that we'd just been drubbed 1-4 then we (team and fans) would be dreading an attacking start from the opposition - with that sinking 'oh god here we go again' feeling. So, prediction 1) if we get into them early an nick one - it will damage their confidence and they will think that all the Pullis 'encouragement', the work on the training field, the desire to show the fans that you're not crap relegation fodder, has all been wasted, etc. WIN for City.
Prediction 2) If City start slowly and hesitate and faff around - then WBA will start thinking they're not that bad, QPR was a one off, we are bossing the game, the fans are behind us, etc. Prediction Draw as City fight back to claw an equaliser.
Prediction 3) if City fans are in the form they were last Saturday - then regardless of what WBA think - we will win anyway.
 
I do like Paul Merson's newfound love for Leicester City FC but 'win this and they stay up' is.. well, jumping the gun a bit.
 
Knows his stuff, then, does Merson :icon_roll

It may bounce in off his arse or he may score one of those Fifa goals where you literally run the ball into the net. As with the fifa goal, he'll probably keep running forward even when he hits the net himself.
 
I just hope NP's team selection is brave and he doesn't go 5 at the back again now Upson is fit. They are slow at the back and we need to exploit that with pace. Same team as last week except for Kramaric instead of Ulloa - and maybe Albrighton for Mahrez but maybe his wife needs to tweet an apology before that will happen. We must get the 3 points - a draw is just not good enough....quite honestly I would rather lose going for 3 points than get a draw

The tweeting an apology thing is is a joke right? I can't tell but I assume it must be...
