Leicester City host Brighton on Sunday hoping to pick up another three points and keep themselves involved in the fight at the top.

The Foxes can move to 24 points with victory, which would take them above Chelsea into third and potentially on the same points as Spurs and Liverpool, if either one loses earlier in the day.

Brendan Rodgers’ side returned to winning ways in the league last weekend, beating Sheffield United 2-1 thanks to a late Jamie Vardy winner.

Brighton have been commended for playing some great football this season at times, but a lack of clinical edge means they haven’t picked up the points they’ve deserved and they remain in 16th, with just two victories this term.
