Bookies form strong opinion on Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy's prospects in Leeds United clash

Some bookmakers have the Whites and Foxes as joint favourites but Leeds are no bigger than 43-25 with Leicester 7-4 and the draw on offer at 53-20.

But Vardy is rated considerably the most likely player to score in a market not too dissimilar to United's recent hosting of Wolves for which the Whites were again favourites but with Raul Jimenez market leader to net first.

This time last season's Golden Boot winner Vardy is only 15-4 to score first and no bigger than 11-10 any time but as short as 10-11 with some firms.

United's Patrick Bamford is next at 6s to open the scoring and 7-4 as an any time scorer.

In order, Islam Slimani, Kelechi Iheanacho, Ayoze Perez, Harvey Barnes, James Maddison and then Cengiz Under are rated the next most likely Foxes goal threats with Maddison looking a big price at 12s to net first and 9-2 any time.

A 1-1 draw is rated the most likely outcome in the correct score market at 13-2 with both sides then 10-1 to net a 2-1 victory.

Bamford, meanwhile, is 66-1 to net another hat-trick with Vardy nearly a third of those odds at 25-1 in a market in which either a draw or a one-goal victory for either side is envisaged.
