Chelsea vs Leicester: Preview
After a tough spell that saw Chelsea go from title contenders to slipping down to sixth in the league table, the Blues got back to winning ways last week with a comfortable 4-0 win over bottom club Southampton.
It was a much-needed victory for manager Enzo Maresca who managed to get some big performances out of forwards Pedro Neto and Christopher Nkunku. The latter was particularly impressive as he opened the scoring before creating numerous chances for his teammates.
The only downside from the performance was that Cole Palmer continued to struggle. The hugely talented midifelder missed two glorious chances when one-on-one in the first half and has now failed to score in his last seven matches. He’ll be hoping to rediscover his spark this weekend against a side who give up plenty of chances.
Leicester have conceded 12 goals in their last four league games and have failed to find the back of the net in any of those matches. Second bottom of the table, there is plenty of unrest around the club, with numerous fans questioning the appointment of Ruud van Nisterlrooy who has struggled to make an impact since replacing Steve Cooper in November.
Chelsea vs Leicester: Team news
Chelsea are set to be without several key players for the visit of Leicester. Strikers Niclas Jackson and Marc Guiu are both set for an extended stay on the sidelines, while fellow attacker Noni Madueke is nursing a hamstring injury and is likely to be out until the middle of the month.
There are also a few concerns at the back with Benoit Badiashile, Wesley Fofana and Reece James all struggling with injuries. That could mean Trevor Chalobah comes back into the side, however, he picked up a back injury just two weeks ago and may not be fit to play the full 90 minutes. Midfielder Romeo Lavia also looks set to miss out with a hamstring problem.
As for Leicester, Abdul Fatawu and Ricardo Pereira remain sidelined through injury, but they are the only major concerns for Van Nistelrooy who may choose to make some changes from the side that were beaten 2-0 by West Ham last week.
Harry Winks came off the bench in that game and could now be in line to start, as could Stephy Mavididi who replaced Bobby De Cordova-Reid on the hour mark at the London Stadium.
