How do you think we will do?
I am going for a home win, do believe we will click gel whatever very soon!
Going to bet we win 3-1 or 4-1, Brighton's bubble will burst very soon!
Sven is the man.
 
I don't know.

The pressure will really start to mount if we lose this. As somebody else has said when a team on a good run turns up we usually beat them, when we play a team that has lost their last 87 we always lose.

It's pretty simple, if we play like we did in the first half against Forest and Southampton for 90 minutes we'll win. In the back of my mind though I've got a feeling (from the same part of my brain that thought we might lose against Bristol and possibly beat/play really well at Forest) that we will have our worst performance yet on Saturday, then next week on TV, at Cardiff where we rarely do well and who are in good form, we will win and go on a good run of form. It would be typical Leicester.

We simply have to play the diamond, if we do that we've got a chance. After all I'm convinced Brighton aren't that good.
 
I have bet against Brighton on this much at my partners discuss, there form is unreal at the moment, but there playing one of the favs in this league this season, and im not sure who they will play as they have 3 games in quick succession, Liverpool home on Wednesday then Leeds on Friday.
 
I think we will win about 4-0

Brighton will come here and try and play football unlike what most teams do so i think with the game being very open we will destroy then and not because they are a bad side because they are decent
 
I reckon it will be a very boring game where neither side can get it out of the middle of the park.

Predict 1-0 after a lapse in concentration by one of the teams - unfortunately it is more likely to be us.
 
One of the few occasions where I'll be going into the game having no idea what I'm expecting to see. And I'm not sure I like it :p

1-1. Bout time one of the defenders scored. How about Matt Mills (if he plays!) with a late headed equaliser?
 
Also, just to add, I think the first goal will be absolutely crucial in this game. I know this is particularly the case with Leicester, whoever they play, but I firmly believe that an early goal will give the team the confidence and self-belief that has perhaps been missing. Horribly cliched, but it's true. I think Brighton will run away with it if they score in the first 15 or 20 mins.
 
I'm with Proud. I think Brighton coming here and playing football will benefit us and in terms of footballing ability, we can match anybody in this league on our day. What we haven't managed is that solid spine and backbone you need for the Championship.

I think everyone on here would want Sven to play the diamond and the noises from Sven after the match suggest he'll do that. I think we'll win 2-1 with King and Danns scoring the goals.

I think you're right, the same thing happened with Forest and Southampton, we got early goals in both, relaxed, and went on to play some good stuff for the first half at least.

This game is more unpredictable than most, as Brighton have overachieved so far and we have underachieved. Their form will dip at some point and ours will pick up at some point, but it may not be tomorrow.
 
I think you'll be losing 1-0 at HT. Then you lot will boo your own players off the pitch. Then the collapse will continue until you eventually lose 4-0 and Sven is sacked in the boardroom, thus equilibrium restored.
