Despite saying on Thursday that only one Chelsea player – Reece James – was definitely out of today’s game at Leicester, boss Enzo Maresca had still gone for a wonky line up on his return to his former club.
Malo Gusto’s absence from the squad means that with James out there is no recognised right back.
Expect centre half Wesley Fofana to deputise. He has played there before.
Long-travelling pair Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo both start having returned from playing in South America in the international break.
And guess what Chelsea fans? Cole Palmer is fit to start for his club after pulling out of the last England squad with injury. It’s a miracle in the Midlands.
Welcome to Leicester vs Chelsea
The Premier League returns this afternoon with Steve Cooper’s Foxes looking to get one over Chelsea at the King Power Stadium.
Enzo Maresca returns to his old stomping ground having taken Leicester up from the Championship last season.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall returns to his old club but will be on the bench for the game, having not made the starting line-up.
The Blues will be looking to keep the pressure on the sides above them in this early kick-off.
Starting the day fifteenth in the league table, The Foxes will be looking to move further away from the relegation battle.
On a stormy weekend in the UK, both sides know that nothing other than three points will do this afternoon.
