Fox hunting
Chelsea look to continue their revitalised form as they take on winless-in-five Leicester City.
Chelsea's weary winter form saw them pick up just three wins between Dec 26 and Feb 22, but a favorable run of games, Southampton and Copenhagen in the Conference League, has made it back-to-back wins for the first time in three months.
Cole Palmer may not be firing, but the return of captain and hailed Cobham graduate Recce James has been the lift that Enzo Maresca has been looking for, mentally and technically.
As for Ruud van Nistelrooy, how he could do with a player even half as good as the aforementioned England duo. The legendary striker-turned-not-so-legendary manager is good friends with Maresca, but will need more than a relationship that sparked in Malaga over a decade ago to keep his Foxes side up—six points below the drop after Wolves' draw last night.
In theory, this should be a concession for the Blues, but practicality has never really been in the vocabulary of this New Chelsea.
2pm GMT kick-off
