West Bromwich Albion v Leicester City - Premier League
Jamie Vardy famously lifted Leicester City to the 2015/16 Premier League titles with his goals. He scored 24 goals that season and narrowly missed out on the Premier League Golden Boot. In the same season, he set a record for scoring in 11 consecutive Premier League games. Vardy had 115 shots, with 53 of them on target.

The next season saw a dip in form, as Leicester City crumbled, mostly due to the exit of Kante and Vardy had only 53 shots, with 26 of them on target, scoring 13 goals in the Premier League. Many critics stated that Vardy was a one season wonder.
However, in the 2017/18 season, the Englishman showed renewed vigour and the Premier League saw a resurgent Jamie Vardy. He attempted 71 shots, with 35 of those on target and scored 20 goals. This season too, Vardy has started well. He has played 2 games, had 2 shots, with 1 of them on target and has scored one goal.
Jamie Vardy has 144 appearances in the Premier League and has registered 289 shots, out of which 139 have been on target. He might have missed 44 big chances in all those games but has already scored 63 goals. However, the most astonishing statistics is the Shooting Accuracy Percentage. At 48%, his shooting accuracy percentage is the highest in this list and that makes him dangerous. One can expect Jamie Vardy to have a party this season as well

Deepungsu Pandit
Deepungsu is a veteran football journalist who has been covering daily transfer roundups and news for over six years at Sportskeeda. He has written close to 9000 articles for the website, and has garnered over 19.5Million reads.
Deepungsu holds a PG degree in Microbiology and an MBA degree in Total Quality Management. He has an extensive two-decade long writing experience, which includes a decade of sports blogging. His writing prowess has even led his work getting cited on the legendary Franz Beckenbauer's Wikipedia page.
Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina's glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
