Evening all, and welcome to Leicester City v Crystal Palace!

My console crashes, then returns for me to hear Roy Hodgson bemoaning the break his team had, which is unwelcome at this point in the season. He says Leicester are a team without weakness, so it's a tough challenge for his players tonight.

Jamie Carragher is currently talking us through Spurs' no-show at Wembley yesterday. It really was a shambles.

I know Palace usually play with two up but it's especially necessary against teams who play with a back three. Three centre-backs on one striker makes it difficult for the attacking team; three on two is a very different story, especially with two attackers coming from wide midfield.

Ah, Leicester's Twitter teamsheet left off the subs, so here they are.

Whoops, I forgot the link.

I love both of these, but let's be real: this rivalry had a very clear winner. It's actually worth noting that Vieira won his league titles in 97-98 when Keane did his cruciate in September, in 01-02 when Keane missed enough games injured for it to make the difference, and in 03-04 when Keane was over the hill.

Who you voting for then? I've got to say that, brilliant though Alan Shearer was, he'd not be in my first few because the majority of his goals came in low-pressure games, rather than the games that decided who won pots. I think Eric Cantona and Roy Keane are essentials because they dominated the league for a period of seasons, then Rio Ferdinand, Ashley Cole and Peter Schmeichel because they were the best in the world in their positions and won loads of titles.

It should be said that Palace are one of the better away sides in the division - sort of. They're 15th in the away table, which suggests to the contrary, but their best away performance is better than that of most teams, thanks to the pace, directness and ingenuity of Wilfried Zaha and Eberechi Eze in particular but also Jordan Ayew and Patrick van Aanholt.

Palace, meanwhile, don't have Gay Cahill available, so Scott Dann replaces him; otherwise, this is the team walloped 4-1 by Chelsea the weekend before last.

Tell you what, Ndidi, Tielemans and Maddison is a midfield too.

I say Iheanacho's in form and he is, but it might just be that this is him now.

So Brendan Rodgers retains the side which beat West Brom last week, the 3-5-2 formation accentuating Leicester's strength at centre-back and allowing him to play two centre-forwards, the eternal Jamie Vardy and in-form Kelechi Iheanacho.

Some teams, nu?

The results at the weekend - Chelsea beating West Ham, Liverpool drawing with Newcastle - means that this isn't a colossal a game for Leicester as it might've been. They've still got work to do if they're to make next season's Champions League, but it's hard to see them being caught now. Though I guess it's even harder if they earn three more points tonight, so maybe I'm talking nonsense and this is extremely colossal after all.
