Match Preview
Chelsea’s Champions League aspirations have been negatively impacted in recent weeks after suffering three defeats in their last five matches. However, they remain just a point behind Man City, and a win on Sunday could see them end the round as high as third.
Leicester will also have huge pressure on their shoulders when they come into this round of matches. The Foxes have suffered defeats in each of their last four, which leaves them five points adrift from safety. Leicester have recorded just four wins in 27 league outings this term.

Chelsea hold a very strong recent record against Leicester after winning five of the last six meetings between the sides. Over that period, the Blues have dropped points in just one fixture.
Furthermore, the Foxes have endured a miserable record on the road at Stamford Bridge after picking up just a single win from their last eleven visitors. Leicester have scored just seven goals across that period, and they have failed to net two or more in any visit.
Their recent run of form is also a major concern ahead of this showdown. Leicester have lost eleven of their last 12, and they have lost each of their previous four without scoring.
Chelsea vs. Leicester Picks
All the trends point to this being a straightforward afternoon for Chelsea on Sunday. The Blues have won three in succession at Stamford Bridge, and that winning sequence looks set to continue this weekend.
