The whistle goes and it's goalless at the break, which is about right on the balance of play. Leicester are going three points clear at the top as it stands.

A poor back header by Morgan gives Schmeichel a lot of work to do, but he saves the day with a diving header to clear ahead of the onrushing Deeney, making sure that his clearance isn't in the direction of a yellow shirt to give himself time to get back into the box.
43'
You can't fault Deeney for effort, but at times he looks like he lacks the finesse to ever be a top striker at this level. Ighalo's goals have dried up, but his touch and vision is the better of the two.
42'
Deeney has a pop from distance, but his effort flies well over the bar - accompanied by cheers from the travelling fans.
40'
After the early excitement the game has quietened down a little, with Watford having more of the ball and Leicester looking to hit them on the break.
38'
Leicester deal comfortably with the delivery. Watford will need to produce a higher level in attack than that to beat a Foxes defence that have kept six clean-sheets in their last nine league games.
37'
Okazaki is slightly too rough with a challenge in the centre of the park. He escapes a booking, but it's a free-kick in a dangerous area for Watford.
36'
It's still goalless at Vicarage Road, which will please fans of Tottenham and Arsenal (who are definitely watching, despite what they may say).

The brilliant Kante jinks past his man in midfield and sprays a pass out wide to Vardy to launch another Leicester counter-attack. The move breaks down, but there's so much threat every time the midfielder bursts forward.
32'
Ighalo wins his team a free-kick out by the corner flag, but Watson's delivery sails over everybody in the box and behind for a goal-kick.
31'
Ranieri paces the touchline with arms folded. He's done a brilliant job keeping a lid on his emotions this season, not allowing his players to get overwhelmed with the remarkable position they've found themselves in.
30'
The chances have dried up slightly in the game, with Watford shutting the game down after learning quickly that you can't afford to leave space in behind your defence against Leicester.

Amrabat is booked for simulation, hopefully flopping into the box after a clash with Fuchs.
