Chelsea Preview – Can Blues bounce back?
A heavy 3-0 defeat away from home at Leeds United last weekend scuppered Chelsea’s ambitions of extending their unbeaten start to the new Premier League season which had previously seen Chelsea pick up four points from their opening two games.
A 1-0 win away at Everton and a point in the 2-2 draw with London rivals, Tottenham, had given Chelsea a solid start but defeat to Leeds certainly wasn’t in Thomas Tuchel’s script; however, Chelsea possess a reasonably strong record at Stamford Bridge where the hosts have lost just two of their last 17 home games.
Leicester City Preview – Can Foxes hunt down opening win?
Three games into this new Premier League campaign and Leicester City are still looking to pick up their first win of this season and indeed, The Foxes have managed to grab just a single point from the possible nine on offer to date.
An opening day 2-2 draw at home with Brentford was followed by back to back defeats to Arsenal and Southampton in 4-2 and 2-1 losses respectively, while results away from home have also been poor; Leicester have collected just two wins from their last 15 outings on the road.
