Leicester face Chelsea at King Power Stadium on Saturday, Jan 14. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
Leicester will hope the second half of the Premier League season is pretty much the exact opposite of the first half. The defending champs currently sit in 15th place in the league table, and have won only one game in their last five.
The Foxes are coming off a disappointing draw away to 16th-place Middlesbrough. Now, they have the pleasure of facing off with leaders Chelsea on Saturday. The best thing that can be said for Leicester in this match is that they get to play host. Any more than that is probably wishful thinking.
Chelsea did, however, finally stumble: after a 13-game winning streak, Spurs put them away, 2-0, at White Hart Lane last Wednesday. The Blues are still atop the table with a five point cushion, and are still a near-lock to win the Premier League, but Spurs provided a bit of a template for how to beat them: press like hell. Tottenham harassed Chelsea all over the field, preventing their attacking players from getting time on the ball to start and finish attacks.

Chelsea will certainly be keen to avenge their loss and start a new winning streak. Leicester, who will be missing some players, including Riyad Mahrez, due to the Africa Cup of Nations, will hope to steal a point at home.
