Leicester City vs Crystal Palace LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction

With team-mates better placed in the centre, Ayew rather desperately attempts a shot from an angle on the right side of the box, which Thomas does well to charge down.

Maddison's attempt from the centrally-placed free-kick strikes the end of Palace's defensive wall, and Guehi prevents it travelling goalwards.

After Andersen gifts the ball to Leicester deep inside his own half, the ball breaks to Daka, who - in the process of playing in Lookman - is brought down by a lunging challenge from the recovering Palace defender. That will be a free-kick in dangerous territory, just outside the box.

From a Thomas cross into the area, Lookman is slow to react and can only divert a powerless attempt at goal, which Guaita comfortably collects.

A slalom run from Maddison ends with the Leicester playmaker falling to the turf on the right side of the area, under presure from two Palace defenders, but no foul is given.

Maddison's outswinging corner from the right finds Justin unmarked in the centre of the area, but the full-back's header is nodded away from goal by the well-placed Ward.

SAVE! Flinging himself upwards to tip Tielemans' 20-yard strike over the crossbar, Guaita makes a sharp save right at the start of the second half. That's the Leicester midfielder's second attempt from range, and he's getting closer!

We are back under way in Leicester!

The home side were totally on top at the climax of the first half, but have a stark reminder still in their collective memory about the fragility of a two-goal advantage. Though the Foxes went 2-0 up in October's reverse fixture at Selhurst Park, they contrived to throw away that half-time lead - drawing 2-2 after conceding second-half goals to Schlupp and Olise.

A rather aimless affair seemd to be meandering to its conclusion with 10 minutes to play before the half-time whistle, but a double intervention from Dewsbury-Hall has put Leicester in control at the King Power against an off-colour Crystal Palace side. The same XI that started the win over Arsenal have been a pale shadow of their former selves so far today, with the visitors managing only one shot on target in the first 45 minutes. Leicester were marginally the better side, but now head down the tunnel with a significant lead to defend.
