Struggling Chelsea faces Foxes test

Chelsea vs Leicester City
Venue: Stamford Bridge
Kick off: 12:30pm

Chelsea will welcome reigning champions Leicester City to Stamford Bridge today with both teams currently on a bad run of form.
Chelsea are going through a slump after starting the season with three consecutive wins. They have won just one of their last three Premier League games, which included losses to main rivals Liverpool and Arsenal.
Antonio Conte is under pressure to get them back to winning ways sooner rather than later. The Italian manager admitted that his team are struggling defensively and will be glad to have John Terry back in the squad for their clash against the Foxes. Willian will be absent for the game after being granted compassionate leave following his mother’s death recently.
Leicester are far worse compared to last season and are currently in 12th place in the league having won just two of their seven games thus far. They have lost the last two away games, which were against Liverpool and Manchester United and Claudio Ranieri will be keen to avoid a third straight away defeat.
The King Power outfit have failed to recapture last season’s form and with teams having learnt their counter-attacking style of play, they are able to counter it better this season. The Italian manager is sweating on the fitness of Danny Drinkwater after the midfielder missed England’s recent World Cup qualifying fixtures with a minor groin injury. He is expected to recover in time to take his place at the heart of the midfield, where he will come up against former teammate N’Golo Kante, who chose to move to Stamford Bridge this summer.

Chelsea Possible XI: Courtois; Cahill, Terry, Luiz; Azpilicueta, Matic, Kante, Alonso; Oscar, Costa Hazard.

Leicester City Possible XI: Schmeichel; Simpson, Huth, Morgan, Fuchs; Drinkwater, Amartey, Albrighton, Mahrez; Slimani, Vardy.
