Leicester have had a topsy turvy season but their exit from the League Cup complicates their matters even more; four winless outings for the former league champions makes their trip to London to face a Chelsea side unbeaten in the last four matches as tricky as it can get. The Blues have scored in each of the last eight matches and having secured a win in the League Cup, they go to this game better motivated compared to Leicester. Chelsea have stabilized after the two losses in their last five league matches and go into this clash unbeaten in nine home league matches this season as well as the last 12 league matches at home, stretching back to last season. They have lost just three of their last 25 home matches in the Premier League while they have failed to score in just one of their last 15 home matches and they have kept clean sheets in each of their last three league matches at home. Leicester have picked two wins in 10 league matches and but they have three wins in nine away matches. Only two clean sheets in the last 12 away matches leaves them as underdogs here. Chelsea are unbeaten in seven matches against Leicester City and they have scored in 16 of the last 17 meetings with Leicester. In 84 meetings between the two sides, Chelsea have claimed 42 wins and Leicester 18.
