Chelsea vs Leicester City
Justin has been at his marauding best down the left for Leicester, going toe-to-toe with James at every opportunity. He leads the way for the Foxes in terms of touches and passes, and has also had a shot blocked. Defensively, he's won the ball six times, making a tackle, a block, and six clearances. Fox.

The first half ends, with the first 45 minutes having everything but a goal! Both sides have had chances, with Leicester having a goal ruled out, but it's Chelsea who have been the better team, despite Gallagher's early red card. How being down to 10 men will impact the Blues remains to be seen, with the second half set to be a cracker at Stamford Bridge!

SAVED!!!! Dewsbury-Hall's floated pass to Vardy is headed down by Silva, but Tielemans arrives in the box to tee up Praet. He smashes a first-time shot low, but Mendy gets down to parry it away!
