Welcome to our LIVE coverage of Leicester v Aston Villa.

Richards shows impressive pace to track back and tackle Vardy. There aren't many defenders who are quick enough to do that!

Gil takes his time to get back to his feet but is going to be fine to continue.

Gil was caught in the build-up to that Grealish chance and the players take advantage of the stoppage in play to grab a drink.

Grealish is picked out in a great position inside the Leicester box, but his effort is more like a back-pass than a shot and it's easy for the keeper to deal with.

It's a big call to replace the home0grown King with Inler in midfield, but the summer signing definitely has the quality to make an impression in England.

The atmosphere in Leicester is superb, helped no doubt by the pace and intent that their side are showing.

It's a rough and tumble affair at the King Power, already much better than the early kick-off up in Sunderland!

There's a lot of height in these two sides, but they are cancelling each other at set-pieces as the moment. On this occasion a Grealish corner is comfortably cleared by Leicester.

Sherwood pulled his hamstring on the touchline last time out. Will he keep control of himself this time?

Mahrez has been an absolute revelation this season and is looking good again today. He cuts inside from the right and forces a save out of Guzan.

Morgan rises high in the Villa area, but the centre-back can't keep his header down.

What a miss! Agbonlahor slides a pass right across the face of the goal to pick out Sinclair at the back post, but the former Man City and Swansea man can't quite get his foot around it and tucks his shot agonizingly wide with the goal gaping.

Agbonlahor tries to use his pace to get in behind the Leicester defence, but Morgan holds him off and knocks the ball behind for a corner.

Drinkwater cuts in from the left and has a pop from distance, but his fizzing drive slides narrowly over the bar.

Leicester have start the game brightly, with Inler running the show in the centre of the park.

Aston Villa get the game underway at the King Power.

Plenty of Villan eyes will be on Joleon Lescott today: the ex-City player makes his debut. Leicester could also have a debutant in Nathan Dyer if he comes off the bench, while recent signing Gokhan Inler starts.
