Leicester are 11/10 (William Hill) to beat Barnsley in the Championship and Jermaine Beckford can make an instant impact for the Foxes.
After a disappointing three-game run in which they collected just one point, Leicester got their promotion bid back on track with a victory over Southampton and Sven Goran Eriksson’s men, at 11/10 courtesy of Hills, should have the edge as they head to goal-shy Barnsley.
The acquisition of striker Jermaine Beckford could prove crucial for the Foxes, both at Oakwell and across the rest of the campaign and the ex-Everton man is a tempting 6/1 with Stan James to mark his debut with the opening goal.
At Elland Road, a solid-looking Crystal Palace are a touch overpriced at 7/2 (Betfred) as they tackle a Leeds team set to suffer after losing Max Gradel at the end of the transfer window. Ladbrokes make the Eagles 10/11 to avoid defeat in West Yorkshire.
Elsewhere, leaders Brighton are 11/8 via to gather a maximum haul at Bristol City and Coral quote Southampton at 10/11 to see off a Nottingham Forest team yet to really get going this term under a frustrated Steve McClaren.
Recommended Bets:
Jermaine Beckford to score first – 6/1 (Stan James)
Crystal Palace to beat Leeds – 7/2 (Betfred)
Leicester, Brighton and Southampton to win – 17/2 (William Hill)
