Leicester City form and stats
Overall Premier League stats at home this season for Leicester City are 3-1-4 (wins-draw-losses).
Leicester's previous game was a Premier League match also played at home, ending 1-0 versus Southampton (placed 8th). The home side are looking to build on that result. In the game before, an away victory in the FA Cup match versus Stoke City with a 4-0 scoreline.

Chelsea form and stats
As the visiting team in Premier League matches, Chelsea have produced an overall stat of 4-2-3 so far.
Chelsea play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 1-0 victory visiting Fulham (placed 18th). That result followed a home victory 4-0 versus Morecambe in the FA Cup.
Chelsea are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 14 times in 9 away games so far. 10 goals have been conceded by Chelsea in these games. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
