Overview
After the last 3 rounds in the Premier League, Leicester could only bring home 1 point. The "Foxes" currently have 10 points after 11 rounds, an acceptable result for a newly promoted rookie.
As for Chelsea, they are making significant progress under coach Enzo Maresca. After 11 rounds, The Blues have 19 points with 5 wins and 4 draws.
Their attack has also scored 21 goals, the third highest number in the Premier League this season. Of course, Chelsea have not been really stable at some points, but this is understandable as Maresca still needs more time to perfect his playing style.
Except for the home field advantage, Chelsea is better than Leicester in every aspect, from form to quality of personnel. The Blues will aim to win all 3 points to continue maintaining their position in the leading group. As for Leicester, 1 point can also be considered a success for them.
The Blues have scored in their last 10 Premier League games, which is not good news for Leicester, as they have kept just one clean sheet in their last 11 games in the competition.
The Foxes have failed to win any of their last six meetings with Chelsea, losing five. The last time the two sides met was in the FA Cup last season, with the Blues winning 4-2 at Stamford Bridge.
