Leicester City vs Chelsea match preview

Leicester City's impressive run over the past few games has seen them climb into third place in the Premier League standings. The Foxes are unbeaten in their last five league games and are currently just two points behind league leaders Manchester United. Brendan Rodgers' side overcame a tricky test against Southampton last weekend thanks to goals from James Maddison and Harvey Barnes. Leicester City will be keen on staying in the hunt for a top-four berth and avoiding defeat against Chelsea on Tuesday. 

On the other hand, Chelsea's inconsistent run over the past few months has seen them slump to seventh place on the Premier League table. The Blues are still five points behind Liverpool, who occupy the fourth spot at the moment. However, Chelsea will head into their game against Leicester with some confidence after beating a stubborn Fulham in their last outing. Mason Mount got the only goal of the game at Craven Cottage.
