Thursday’s football tips: Foxes braced for another Hammering

Leicester City look a team bereft of confidence and head to West Ham tonight on a downer after losing 10 of their last 11 Premier League games.

Ruud van Nistelrooy started his Foxes reign with a win over the Hammers in December but it wasn't an omen of things to come.

The Dutchman looks doomed in his bid to save them from relegation and it's hard to see them avoiding another defeat if Graham Potter's side hit form.

West Ham United vs Leicester City top betting tips

West Ham have taken a bit of time to get going under new boss Graham Potter but they head into this game buoyed by an excellent 1-0 win at Arsenal.

With Leicester struggling for goals, another win to nil for the Hammers could pay off tonight at 19/10 while backing Potter's side to be winning at half-time and full-time also appeals at 6/4.

Brentford's slick forwards ripped van Nistelrooy's defence apart last week so Jarrod Bowen and Mohamed Kudus could get a bit of joy tonight.

They're both odds-against for goals tonight, with Bowen at 11/8 with BoyleSports and Kudus priced at 2/1 in the same market. A double on both netting pays 613/100.

Bologna vs AC Milan top betting tips

There's top-flight action in Italy tonight as well, with AC Milan taking on Bologna in an intriguing game.

Only goal difference is keeping Milan above their hosts as they both look to stay in the hunt for a Champions League place.

Bologna's 10-match unbeaten run ended with a weekend defeat at Parma while Milan are on a downer after following up their Champions League exit with a loss at Torino.

Two of the last three meetings have ended in draws so that bet appeals tonight at 11/5 with BoyleSports. If you want to play it a little safer, the half-time stalemate pays 21/20.

Eight yellows were flashed when these sides last faced off and over 52.5 booking points looks good at 13/8 with Betfred.

Barrow v Carlisle United top betting tips

Carlisle United are in danger of getting cut adrift at the foot of League Two and desperately need to get some points on the board when they visit Barrow tonight.

A horror run of just one win in 10 games has left United sitting five points behind third-bottom Tranmere.

But their form has picked up a little of late, with two successive draws, and they have a game in hand on both Rovers and second-bottom Morecambe.

Barrow sit 18th but also head into this game in poor form, conceding three times in each of their last two games.

That makes me think we will see goals at both ends tonight and BTTS pays a decent 20/23 with BoyleSports. Adding on over 2.5 goals takes the odds to 8/5.

We saw 12 corners when these sides faced off earlier this season so over 10.5 flag kicks also appeals at 5/4.
