Chelsea Vs Leicester City - Preview And Prediction
It is really going to be an interesting and another entertaining match at Stamford Bridge tomorrow afternoon when Chelsea host Leicester City in the match day 2 of the English premier league with both teams still waiting for their first win in the league. Although the Foxes are still ahead of the Blues on the log table after playing out a goalless draw against Wolverhampton in their opening game while Chelsea lost horribly to Manchester United. This match will be the first home game for the Blues manager Frank Lampard after losing his first two competitive game to Manchester United and Liverpool. Leicester city manager will also be hoping to get his first win tomorrow against the team where he started his managerial career.
Chelsea
Although the result has not be coming for Chelsea but they are playing good football, in fact, there are some positive changes in the team performance against Liverpool in the mid week compared to the match against United. The team were just unlucky against Liverpool in the Super cup final and they will be hoping to get their first win against Leicester tomorrow. Although the club is still missing some of his players to injury but we be hoping the likes of Rudiger, Willian return to the team after Lampard gave a positive update about the players. Chelsea don't really have any problem in the midfield with many options there but it seems Jorginho will be the man to partner Kante any day leaving the third option for either Mount, Kovacic and Barkley. Pulisic will also return to the line up with Giroud and Pedro upfront.
Leicester
The foxes last season came to the Bridge last season and left with the maximum points which they will also like to repeat again after having a disappointing draw game to Wolverhampton last week. Brendan Rodgers will be hoping to get his first win against a team where he started as youth coach and the club may also prove too difficult for the Blues tomorrow due to the fine run at the Bridge. The team don't have injury news and will the coach will be naming a strong side for tomorrow encounter. The club new signing Ayoze Perez and James Maddison may also start from the flank with Gray starting again from the bench while Ndidi, Tielemans and Choudhury will be doing the job for the club in the midfield, although that depend on the manager tactics tomorrow because Baines may also make it to the line up as well.
Possible Line Up
Chelsea
Kepa, Azpilicueta, Zouma, Christensen, Emerson, Jorginho, Kante, Mount, Pedro, Giroud, Pulisic
Leicester City
Schmeichel, Pereira, Evans, Soyuncu, Chilwell, Tielemans, Ndidi, Choudhury, Maddison, Vardy, Ayoze
Match Analysis And Prediction
The game is really going to be an entertaining one and i expect Chelsea to dominate the game the way they did against Liverpool but not only that, they should come out of the game with maximum points. Although we can not rule Leicester out of the race, they are also a strong team with a good striker upfront, they will be very dangerous on a counter attack and that is why Chelsea need to be very careful in their back line because Vardy can give them a run for their money and with players like Ayoze and Maddison on the flank, it is not going to come very easy for the Blues tomorrow but no matter the case may be, it is a must win for Lampard and his boys tomorrow if they will be competing for the top 4 this season.
My Prediction
Chelsea 2- 0 Leicester
