Both these teams saw forgettable fixtures in the previous round. Leicester losing by five goals to Palace and West Ham losing by four goals to Man City.

Leicester have lost the plot. Home and away they’ve been dismal. West Ham have conceded nine goals in their last three games – losing two of them by four goals back-to-back. The latter need to make games count. With Brighton securing victory over United – the Hammers must swing for the fence.

They sit in 15th place and are one of the teams with 35 points, and an ugly goal difference. A win from the Saints and the rest between the two could see them back in the bottom three. Since the turn of the year and problems with injuries – David Moyes’ men haven’t really picked up form.

With the Foxes playing home I can’t see the Hammers pounding the hound into submission. Moyes’ job is on the line after a string of poor performances. Feeling a Leicester win here. Get the full preview here with Amanda Paula.

Watford vs. Newcastle

A match I’m quite looking forward to out of the fixtures taking place on Saturday Matchday 37. Watford entertains the late bloomers, Newcastle United.

To sides who have demonstrated great form and got outstanding results in different parts of the season. The side displaying recent heroics is Newcastle. They’ve managed an impeccable run barring a few losses. They are favourites considering their form of late but a victory wont be easy at Vicarage Road.

A loss for Watford could be detrimental to their campaign. Another game depending on other results. A win is the only option to help take their fate out of the hands of others. They must write their own fortune by taking all the points available to them. Newcastle are safe from any danger. Wins keep them out of Palace’s reach and a loss gives Roy hope of finishing above them.

The Hornets have only won two of their last 10 fixtures. Whereas Rafa’s men have seen better results and won five of their last 10. The Toon Army has lost two in a row – so a return to winning ways is on the cards. Watford looks far worse and are the team who could see a loss. Going for a Newcastle win.
