Good afternoon and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE coverage of the Premier League fixture between Chelsea and Leicester City. We'll bring you all the action as it happens. Kick off is at 3pm.

Great cross! That was a wicked delivery from Albrighton into the penalty area. Chelsea did just about enough to make sure it didn't trouble Kepa. Well defended and cleared away.

Here's a statistic for you - Leicester City have had 93 corners this season and have only scored one goal from them. That's remarkable when you consider the aerial threat they have.

Chilwell barges through! For the first time in the match Leicester City mount an attack. Chilwell dribbles into the Chelsea box, but Luiz comes acoss to make the timely tackle.

Pedro and Willian have already switched wings twice in the opening 10 minutes and they are interchanging very nicely with Hazard as well. There's a lot of movement up front.

Alonso is back in the Chelsea team for this game this afternoon. There have been some questions asked of him defensively in recent weeks, but he offers so much going forward.

It seems inevitable that Chelsea will break the deadlock soon. They are camped on the edge of the opposition penalty box. Maddison and Vardy are back helping out defensively.

Chelsea are making all of the early running here. Willian sends a freekick into the box, but Schmeichel punches it clear. Leicester City are already having to dig deep to keep Chelsea out.

The match is under way! It's Chelsea against Leicester City in the Premier League.

Okay, here we go. About to get started at Stamford Bridge. Kick off is just seconds away.

Looks like a good crowd at the Bridge for this one. Should be a decent atmosphere.

The two teams are in the Stamford Bridge tunnel ready to walk out on to the pitch. Tension.

Not long until kick off at Stamford Bridge now. This has the potential to be a good game, but you'd have to expect that Chelsea will claim three points. They are the favourites.

Vardy has been critical of the style of play professed by Puel at Leicester City. Meanwhile, Sarri has imposed a dynamic identity on Chelsea since coming in during the summer.

I'm Graham Ruthven and you can catch me on Twitter ahead of the match to let me know your thoughts. How badly do Chelsea need to sign a striker in January? Can Leicester spring a surprise? Tweet me!

Under pressure! Questions have been asked of Puel over the past week. Some believe that he could be sacked if Leicester City suffer a bad defeat at Stamford Bridge this afternoon.

False nine! Once again, Sarri has decided to play without an out and out striker, with Hazard deployed in the 'false nine' role. Clearly he has no faith in Giroud and Morata. Ouch.
