Thomas Tuchel will be working hard to lift his Chelsea side following a gut-wrenching FA Cup final defeat to Liverpool on Saturday, their second Wembley loss of the season to Jürgen Klopp’s team, both of them following a penalty shoot-out. The good news for the Chelsea boss is their League Cup final loss in February was the catalyst for a six-game winning run, and victory in this clash will secure third place in the Premier League (PL).

CHELSEA
The ‘Blues’ have not been in imperious form at home though, losing two of the last four (W1, D1) and winning just three of the last nine top flight matches there, a run that includes four draws. And while they have scored in 14 straight league games at Stamford Bridge, there are major defensive concerns as both teams have scored in nine of the last dozen.
Chelsea may have drawn a blank against Liverpool in the FA Cup final, but Thomas Tuchel’s side know where the back of the net is on home soil, as they have scored in each of their last 13 Premier League matches at Stamford Bridge – a run that dates back to September.
LEICESTER
Whereas Chelsea are in need of a lift, the same cannot be said of Leicester City, who thumped relegated Watford 5-1 on Sunday to move back into the top half of the table. That, though, was a first away win in six for Brendan Rodgers’ side, whose four victories on their travels this PL season have all come against sides placed 11th or lower.
Keeping a clean sheet on the road has been a real problem for the ‘Foxes’, who have conceded in 17 of their 18 league matches away from the King Power Stadium (W4, D5, L9). With their four road trips against teams in the top five seeing them concede 13 goals and fail to pick up a single point, avoiding their first pair of H2H losses in a season since 2016/17 looks a tall order.
The Foxes could still finish as high as eighth and they will fancy their chances of taking at least a point from their trip to west London, as they have lost on just one of their last four visits to Stamford Bridge.
