Chelsea Team News, Betting Odds And Where To Watch Vs Leicester City

Enzo Maresca will return for the first time at the King Power Stadium as Leicester host Chelsea this weekend. 

The Chelsea boss helped the foxes to the Championship league title last season earning promotion back to the Premier League in his first managerial job.

He has kicked off his start to life at Stamford Bridge well as Chelsea sit 3rd in the league and nine points off league leaders Liverpool.

They come off the back of a 1-1 draw to title rivals Arsenal and come out of the international break in a good place.

Enzo Maresca has a very healthy group of players with the only name ruled out being Reece James who has suffered a hamstring injury which is a worry considering he has history with his hamstring.

Steve Cooper’s side will be keen to bounce back from their last game which was a 3-0 defeat against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Chelsea backed as favourites at the King Power Stadium

Somewhat unsurprisingly, the Blues are heavy favourites against a Leicester City side who are simply aiming to survive relegation this season.

According to Oddschecker, Chelsea are 8/15 favourites against Leicester giving them a 65.2% chance of three points on Saturday afternoon.

The Foxes are backed at 11/2 (15.4%) and a draw is backed at 15/4 (21.1%). We predict a 3-1 win for Chelsea where Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson link up yet again with some slick attacking football.

Where to watch Leicester City hosting the Blues
