A potentially tricky assignment for chelsea who could give Danny Drinkwater his debut at the home of his former club. Antonio Conte must also decide what sort of role Eden Hazard plays now he is available after returning from ankle surgery. Leicester are unable to call on the services of Adrien Silva, who remains in limbo after Fifa refused to approve his transfer from Sporting Lisbon. Robert Huth and Vicente Iborra are also sidelined, although Aleksandar Dragovic, signed on a season-long loan from Bayer Leverkusen, could feature. Stuart James
