A fine display from an under-manned Leicester side, especially coming after the shock loss to Bournemouth last time out. Sheffield United offered very little.
90'
McBurnie drills a ball across the six-yard box but Bennett puts it away for a corner. He's had a good game too.
84'
A game that really has made a mug of form book. Leicester couldn't have been at a lower ebb after the weekend, nor the Blades flying higher.
79'
GOAL! Another chance created from Vardy. This time after a long ball from Evans. This time he finds Gray alone at the back post and Gray shoots well across Henderson and into the far post.
76'

Barnes is replaced by Gray for Leicester.

Evans is the first man in the book for a foul on Mousset.
74'
Tielemans found by another fine pass from Vardy dinking a ball over the defence but the Belgian's first touch was errant and his effort is blocked behind.
71'
Choudhury comes on for Leicester replacing Perez.
69'
Drinks break....
63'
Schmeichel called on to make a stop from Egan from close range after a corner was headed back into the six-yard box and it deflected off the centre half's knee towards the corner of the goal.
62'

Billy Sharp is on for Chris Basham. He is denied a goalscoring chance by Morgan's interception.
62'
Another great chance for Barnes, again set up by Vardy, and again denied by Henderson's leg - though on this occasion it was a weak effort from the former West Brom man.
58'
Another good chance for Leicester as Bennett's cross-field ball finds Vardy and he slips a ball inside to Barnes who despite a shove from O'Connell strikes firmly at goal but Henderson again saves his side.
54'
Good chance there for Leicester on the break. Justin down the right hand side tried to find Vardy in the middle but his ball was easy for Henderson to gather.
52'

Tielemans plays a lovely ball down the inside left channel for Vardy to run on to but his effort smashes against the outside of Henderson's near post.
49'
The Blades have started a lot sharper (see what i did there). A Fleck dummy tries to set up McBurnie but ran through to Schmeichel.

Leicester get us back underway.
46'
Sheffield United as expected making changes and a triple one at that; bringing on Fleck, Lundstrom and Mousset on for McGoldrick ,Osborn and Berge.
HALF TIME

The end of a fine first half for Leicester. I did say the same in their last game against Bournemouth and we know how that ended. Brendan Rodgers will surely remind his side of this.
45+1'
Osborn has a good chance to cross but puts too much on it. They have found themselves in good positions but have never looked like threatening Leicester so far. You'd expect changes from Chris Wider.
