Christian Fuchs: It's players like Fuchs who have come to embody the spirit and attitude which has defined Leicester City this season. In his interview with Sky he's repeatedly reiterated the degree of fun and enjoyment the whole squad are having this season. They're making the most of this incredible feat and laughing in the face of the serious purists among us.  dda70e66-453d-4e35-868a-2bfc1d01ad7e.jpg

Claudio Ranieri has his say:  "It's not important what the other teams are doing but it's important what Leicester do. That is our philosophy."Southampton have very good players and will look to terminate the match.Southampton is the team who scores the most headers, so we know where the threat is.

"We have to stay very concentrated as they have a very good combination of forwards and counter-attacking football."

The players are in the tunnel! We're moments from kick-off and what will be the start of the biggest six weeks in Leicester City's history...

"This is their destiny...they can't bottle it now." Philosophical words from the wise Graeme Souness.

Here we go, that's kick-off! Game on!

1 min: The ball stays airborne as it bounces between the two sides before it eventually gets brought down by Leicester and played back to Schmeichel.

4 min: Leicester are awarded the free-kick down the right flank after Ozazaki appears to take a knock to the head. It's pumped in and immediately gets headed out but Leicester recycle it before Mahrez earns a corner from the right. Fuchs scrambles to get his head to the delivery but nothing comes of it. Bright start from the Foxes.
