1 – Chelsea’s historical advantage
Leicester have struggled against Chelsea in recent history, and have only managed one win in their last nine Premier League encounters – coming at the King Power last season in a 2-1 win.
If history is anything to go by then Leicester could be in for a very long evening, but Ranieri will know that a win for his side against his former club could re-ignite a spark in Leicester’s season just at the right time.
A win could take Leicester within touching distance of the top-half, and could see them start to salvage some respectability after a dire beginning to their title defence.
