Latest Leicester City vs Chelsea squad information
The Stamford Bridge medical department received a familiar message as manager Enzo Maresca confirmed that Reece James has a minor hamstring problem and will miss the Leicester game. However, James is the only injury in the squad.
Romeo Lavia is expected to return after a hamstring injury, while Cole Palmer, Jadon Sancho and Levi Colwill have returned to training after fitness issues. Wesley Fofana and Malo Gusto could feature after withdrawing from the France squad. Lavia will be important as Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez have struggled in South America.
Leicester also have a personnel problem, with striker Abdul Fatawu suffering an ACL injury that could rule him out for the rest of the season. In addition to Fatawu, Jamie Vardy (back), Bobby Decordova-Reid (Achilles tendon) and Jordan Ayew (knee) are doubts, but Patson Daka (ankle) could return. Ricardo Pereira (thigh) and Jakub Stolarczyk (ankle) are definite absentees, while Facundo Buonanotte is suspended following his fifth yellow card against Manchester United.

Latest football commentary Leicester City vs Chelsea
Ahead of kick-off at the King Power on Saturday night, attention will be on how Leicester fans will react to Enzo Maresca. Despite leading the Foxes to the Championship title and a return to the Premier League, the 44-year-old's managerial style has not pleased all supporters, especially when the team is struggling.
Under Maresca, Chelsea have impressed, finishing third in the Premier League, ahead of Arsenal, Nottingham Forest and Brighton on goal difference. However, their form has slowed down, winning just one of their last four games, including tough games against Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal.
Incidentally, the last time Chelsea failed to score away from home in the Premier League was a 5-0 defeat to Arsenal in April. Since then, they have scored in their next eight away games, netting 12 goals – their best return in the league this season. However, Chelsea have often been slow to start after the international break, winning just one of their last seven games since the break.
As for Leicester, manager Steve Cooper is keeping the team in the Premier League after taking over from Maresca. However, their recent results have not been encouraging, with 10 points from 11 games, placing them 15th, three points above 18th-placed Crystal Palace. Leicester have not lost two consecutive home games this season and have scored in all six of their games at the King Power, but their only result has been a 4-0 win over Tranmere Rovers in the Carabao Cup.
Head-to-head history does not favour Leicester, as they have not beaten Chelsea since the 2020-21 FA Cup final, with 5 defeats and 1 draw in the last 6 meetings.
