The weekend’s Premier League action kicks off on Friday night as Leicester City welcome Brentford to the King Power Stadium.
PP ambassador Joe Cole joined us earlier in the week to share his thoughts on this key game might go down in the East Midlands.
He’s got two player picks in here, too, which is covered by Paddy’s Super Sub offer, meaning if a player is substituted, the pick carries over to his replacement. Let’s get his Leicester v Brentford betting tips.

I covered the Arsenal v Leicester game last weekend and I was really impressed with Leicester’s defending even though they’ve not kept a clean sheet in 21 matches.
We spoke to Ruud van Nistelrooy before the game, and he spoke about how important it would be defend well against Arsenal, and they did really well for the majority of the game.
The restricted them to long-range efforts until Ethan Nwaneri hit the post around the hour mark and then Merino came on and gets those goals.
I think Wilfred Ndidi coming back for Leicester is really important, that will be a boost. However, they have lost their last three matches and are 19th in the table, against a Brentford side who are in 11th, and the visitors are just a well-oiled machine.
So, looking at that, I’m going to go for a draw in this game.
Leicester have shown little signs recently, but they need to pick up points in games like these, and they have to try to keep Brentford down to just one goal scored – but I think both teams will score.
In terms of player picks, Bryan Mbeumo to score is a strong shout, he’s already scored 14 in the Premier League this season, as Brentford’s top scorer.
On Leicester’s side, I like the look of Bilal El Khannouss to score or assist, he’s playing really well and works so hard for the team.
