Your support makes all the difference.A week after getting sent off for diving, James Maddison showed another side of his game by scoring a brilliant goal to help Leicester beat Watford 2-0 in the English Premier League on Saturday.
The playmaker brought down a long ball forward, juggled the ball past his marker, before sending a low volley into the bottom corner from just inside the area in the 23rd minute.
Jamie Vardy's 12th-minute penalty, after the striker himself was brought down by goalkeeper Ben Foster, put the Foxes in control and Watford was well beaten by the time Etienne Capoue was sent off in the 90th.
Leicester leapfrogged its opponent in the standings to move to seventh place.

Player to watch…
Marc Albrighton: The 29-year-old put in an industrious display against Brighton last weekend. He was excellent in helping out defensively and grew into the game in the second half as Leicester upped their tempo. His set pieces looked like Leicester’s best chance of claiming all three points at the Amex Stadium, and he also fired in a penalty in the shootout after coming on as a substitute against Southampton three days later. There's every reason to expect he will be full of confidence.

Newcastle vs West Ham
West Ham have troubles at the back, only Fulham (0) have kept fewer clean sheets than them in the Premier League this season (1).
Can Newcastle capitalise on this weakness?

Crystal Palace vs Burnley
Palace created a number of chances in their last game against Man Utd, but a lack of an out and out goalscorer cost them the win.
Who will step up for them today?
