Current form: Chelsea vs Leicester City
Chelsea narrowly secured a 1-0 victory over Bournemouth in the League Cup, with Eden Hazard coming on as a sub. The Blues have won their last two Premier League games, recovering well after a surprise 2-1 defeat to Wolves, and along the way, ended Manchester City's unbeaten record in the Premier League. Overall, Maurizio Sarri's side have done quite well, especially on home turf, where they are still unbeaten across all competitions this term, and will be fancying their chances at picking up another three points - especially considering their strong record against upcoming opponents Leicester City at home.
Meanwhile, Leicester City have picked up just two wins from their last dozen game and come into this game on a two game losing streak. Claude Puel's side were recently knocked out of the League Cup against Manchester City, and the French tactician was heavily criticized for his tactical selections in a game that some feel the Foxes could have won. He will be under pressure to get a result here with Leicester losing their last two Premier League games, with their recent 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace being especially frustrating.
Current position: Chelsea vs Leicester City
Chelsea are currently battling with Tottenham for third place, and they will want to keep fellow London side Arsenal at bay, with the Gunners sitting just three points back in fifth spot. Leicester City find themselves in 12th spot ahead of this contest.
