Chelsea vs Leicester City Preview and Livestream
Chelsea are the runaway Premier League leaders. Manchester City and Liverpool have been playing catch up in the league so far and the Blues have remained consistent, ruthless, and dominant with their football. Thomas Tuchel’s men have lost just 2 games all season- to Pep Guardiola’s Man City and Italian giants Juventus in the UEFA Champions League.
The ability to not lose to mid-table and lower level teams is what eventually helps Champions. You can beat all the top 6 sides you want but there still needs to be results in the other 26 or so games. But Chelsea face a potent contender in 12th-placed Leicester City who see themselves as a top 6 club just like the Blues. And they will be here for their blood at the Kind Power Stadium, make no mistake about that.
Chelsea vs Leicester City takes place at the King Power Stadium in Leicestershire on Saturday, 20th November 2021 at 12:30 PM GMT. This means that the game will start at 08:30 AM EST and 05:30 AM PST on the same day- 20th November. The Indian fans will see the game kick-off at 18:00 PM IST on Saturday, 20th November.

Chelsea vs Leicester City Prediction
Chelsea and Leicester are very good on their day, but Chelsea’s defensive solidity in recent times has been a thing to cherish and be amazed by. The German manager has really made them a great unit and we believe that even one away goal would be enough to hand the West Londoners a win here. We go with a closely fought 1-0 win for the league leaders here.
