If Sam Allardyce is to pull off another great escape he needs his West Brom side to start picking up points pronto.
The Baggies are nine points and a hatful of goals from safety. They've a game in hand on fourth-from-bottom Burnley but are running out of matches. They make the trip to the King Power Stadium on Thursday in search of three points against the FA Cup finalists Leicester City.
Seven of the Foxes' nine league defeats this season have come at home but bookies rate them 11/20 to win while West Brom are 5/1. A win for Leicester moves them four points clear of Chelsea in third.
Kelechi Iheanacho is now Leicester's top scorer this season, overtaking Jamie Vardy with 15 goals to 14. The Nigerian striker is 7/2 (bet365) to open the scoring or 21/20 to net anytime. He's scored 12 in his last 12 for the Foxes and is a man in form.
In La Liga Atletico Madrid and Barcelona are chasing Real at the top of the table. A win for Diego Simeone's would take them back to the summit while Barca would move two points behind their great rivals with a win at home verus Getafe. An Atletico win coupled with Barcelona to win and score 2 or more pays 9/10 at Bet365.
Goals should be plentiful in Serie A where Roma host Atalanta and Lazio visit Napoli. Check out match previews for those matches below.

Both these sides are struggling to score goals, so on recent form this isn’t a bet that appeals, hence the price.
However, the last 15 matches between the pair (going back nearly 7 years) have produced both teams scoring. So worth a go I’d say…
