Leicester v Chelsea team news

Our prediction: Leicester v Chelsea
Leicester were no flash in the pan when they won the league title back in 2016. They have clung onto their status among the elite and it shouldn't be considered a surprise that they're flying.
In Jamie Vardy they boast an elite goalscorer. In Harvey Barnes they boast a runner with pace to burn and sharp finish. In James Maddison they boast a technical maestro capable of match-winning moments.
Chelsea are equipped with Timo Werner, Christian Pulisic and Hakim Ziyech in those roles, but none of them are firing right now, and that could spell doom for the Blues – and Lampard.
Our prediction: Leicester 2-1 Chelsea
