The upcoming weekend in the English Premier League will open with a match in Leicester. On Saturday, November 20, at the King Power Arena in Leicester, Leicester City will host the leader of the current championship, Chelsea of London. The match will start at 15:30 Moscow time.
Judging by how the Aristocrats are performing today in the domestic arena, every game they play is a joy to behold. Even though today’s Leicester is far from shining on the field, the visitors from the capital will have a tough match this Saturday. Therefore, our forecast for Leicester City vs Chelsea is a must-read for anyone interested in this upcoming game.
Leicester City
The team of Brendan Rodgers is still struggling to regain its former playing form. Accordingly, we cannot speak of any more or less decent results for the team. After 11 rounds played, the Foxes sit in 12th place in the standings with 15 points. On the previous matchday, Brendan Rodgers’ team narrowly missed out on a 1-1 draw with a lame Leeds.
Chelsea
The capital team so far maintains the high pace of the season. The Aristocrats are the leaders in the Premier League championship, with 26 points after 11 rounds. However, in the previous round, Thomas Tuchel’s charges relaxed a little and ended up playing a 1-1 draw with Burnley, the outsider among the teams in the current championship. In the Champions League, the team from the capital is also doing well, with second place in their group and a good chance to participate in the spring playoffs.
