Team news
Chelsea
Surprisingly, the biggest news concerning Chelsea is not captain John Terry's expected come-back, but rather the focus is on new manager Antonio Conte. The Italian tactician, who helped to return Juventus to the pinnacle of Italian football, has not found things as easy in the Premier League and there were even strong rumors concerning his future on the Blues bench.
Still, he opted to take things in stride and take things in stride:
It's going to be a special game for new Chelsea man N'Golo Kante as he will come up against his former colleagues yet again since making his move from King Power Stadium. Although Terry has returned to the squad, key midfielder Willian will miss out due to the death of his mother recently.
Leicester City
After shocking the football world by winning the league last term, things have not exactly gone as according to plan for Leicester City. The Foxes, who are featuring in the Champions League for the first time in their history, now have the unfamiliar task of balancing both domestic and continental responsibilities. And whilst they have done well so far in European club football's premier competition, they have not been at their very best in the Premier League. Leicester lost their opening match to Hull City, setting an unwanted record in the process, and have earned just eight points from their opening seven games.
With European action taking place next week, Claudio Ranieri will have to decide how to effectively manage his squad for this one. In terms of injuries and suspensions, only Nampalys Mendy will miss out for this match, as Shinji Okazaki appears to have shaken off his ankle problem.
