The reigning champions Leicester City take on current league leaders Chelsea this Saturday, with the Blues looking to return to winning ways after losing their 13 game win streak at Tottenham Hotspur last week.
Both Chelsea and Leicester City progressed to the fourth round of the FA Cup, winning against Peterborough and Everton respectively, although John Terry’s failed appeal against his red card was the only negative Chelsea could take from their 4-1 home drubbing of Peterborough.
Leicester’s current danger men were not part of the Foxes infamous Premier League title win last season, with neither Riyad Mahrez nor Jamie Vardy hitting top form this season.
Pacy forward Ahmed Musa, who scored twice at Everton, and January signing Wilfred N’Didi, touted as N’Golo Kante’s successor looks set to make his home debut after featuring in the FA Cup.
Antonio Conte again has a difficult decision to make over who will start at right-wing this weekend, with both Pedro and Willian scoring against Peterborough.
Willian’s form away from home is however marginally better than the seemingly ineffective Pedro, with the Brazilian scoring away at both Hull and Manchester City, whereas Pedro hasn’t managed a single strike outside of Stamford Bridge.
While Leicester secured the £15 million signing of N’Didi, Chelsea have recalled young defender Nathan Ake from his impressive loan stint at Bournemouth, as fears grow over Marcos Alonso’s fitness.
Both Vardy and Andy King are set to return to the Leicester City squad in time for the game at the King Power Stadium, having both come down with illness over the past week.
Chelsea, meanwhile have no injury or suspension concerns, apart from Terry who will be serving his one-match suspension.
