Leicester hoping to break into top half of the table...but could find it tough against Tottenham
Leicester City
As things stand, Leicester find themselves in 11th spot. They could break into the top half of the table if they can win at least one of their remaining two matches. Interestingly enough, the Foxes' path mirrors that of Chelsea's experience last season, to some extent. Leicester won the league title only to struggle this time, and in fact, were flirting with relegation at one point. The Blues experienced the exact same results during the 2015/2016 season, during which the Foxes shocked English football to win their first ever league title.
Shakespeare's arrival, however, has seen things improve for the Foxes. They're aiming to make it six straight home wins for the first time in over five decades, but the hosts have some major selection concerns. Molla Wague, Nampalys Mendy and Daniel Drinkwater are all definitely out, whilst there are doubts about key defenders Wes Morgan and Robert Huth, as well as midfielder Andy King.
Tottenham
Meanwhile, Spurs come into this game having secured a 2-1 win over Manchester United. That result guarantees them second spot, behind city rivals Chelsea and ensured that Tottenham ended their time at White Hart Lane on a good note. In fact, the win over Jose Mourinho's Red Devils means that Mauricio Pochettino's men completed an entire season without suffering a single defeat on home turf.
Harry Kane, who is still in contention for the Golden Boot, will hope to catch Romelu Lukaku. Two goals are what sees the English international behind the Everton star, whilst Hugo Lloris will hope to keep another clean sheet, as he is also in contention for the coveted Golden Glove award. Having already secured a Champions League football berth, Tottenham will have their attentions turned towards next season, but naturally will want to finish this one on a good note.
