There is a big clash in the battle for top four places at the King Power on Saturday afternoon as Leicester host Chelsea.

The Foxes are third in the Premier League table, one spot and eight points ahead of the Blues and can cement their position in the Champions League places by avoiding defeat.

Chelsea are six points ahead of Manchester United, who are fifth, and could be left in a precarious position if they suffer a loss at the King Power.

Leicester are coming off a disappointing defeat to Aston Villa in the League Cup semi-final on Tuesday, while Chelsea beat Hull in the FA Cup in their last outing.

Both clubs had quiet transfer deadline days, with Chelsea making no signings, while Leicester brought in Ryan Bennett on loan from Wolves.
