Command Analysis
Leicester Citykicked off their season with a victory in the Community Shield match against Manchester City. However, the Foxes' start in both the Premier League and the Europa League was not very convincing.
After four games in the Europa League group stage, Leicester are only 3rd in their group with 5 points from ove victory and two draws. In the last two games, the Foxes played against Spartak Moscow. First, Leicester deteated Spartak with a score of 4:3, and then recorded a 1:1 draw.
Leicester also reached the quarterfinals of the League Cup, after prevailing over Brighton in a penalty shootout (3:2 P).
Before the start of matchday 12, the Foxes are 12th in the Premier League table. In the first 11 rounds, Leicester earned 15 points from 4 victories and 3 draws. In the last two games, Brendan Rogers' charges lost to Arsenal (0:2) and drew with Leeds United (1:1).
Bertrand, Justin, Tielemans, and Fofana have been ruled out of this fixture.
The current holder of the Champions League trophy, Chelseaare only 2nd in their group after four games. The Londoners defeated Malmo twice in the last two games (4:0 and 1:0), thus securing a 6-point margin against the 3rd Zenit, which practically guarantees Chelsea a ticket to the playoffs.
Thomas Tuchel's main focus, however, is the Premier League. After 11 rounds,the Blues top the standings with 26 points. Chelsea won 8 games and two matches were drawn. The defensive line of the Blues has been superb; Chelsea conceded only 4 goals in 11 games. In the last two rounds, Tuchels' men defeated Newcastle (3:0) and drew with Burnley (1:1).
Werner, Kovacic, and Alonso are unavailable for Chelsea this weekend. Lukaku's appearance against Leicester is a doubt.

Tip and bets
Leicester do not look impressive this season. The Foxes need to strengthen several positions. In our opinion, the visitors look more powerfull overall, and will leave no chance for Leicester in the upcoming game.
Our prediction - Chelsea to win
Chelsea lead the head-to-head and look more confident throughtout the season. We don't think that Leicester will be able to upset them, especially with such a long list of injuries. We predict that the visitors will emerge triumphant with a two-goal margin.
