Chelsea will face Leicester on Saturday at the King Power Stadium. The visitors are trying to turn their season around after two consecutive victories against Leeds United and Dortmund. Chelsea will favour themselves after finding their rhythm.
Leicester had a horrible start to their season. They spent the majority of their time in the relegation zone. But after the World Cup, the hosts found their feet and moved up to the 15th position with 24 points. A victory in this fixture will take them further ahead in the Premier League table. On the other hand, with a victory, Chelsea will move closer to the UEFA Europa League with 37 points. In the pre-match conference, Graham Potter revealed the importance of their recent form.
“In the two games, we’ve had different back threes. Marc came in against Dortmund, and Benoit played against Leeds. Thiago was injured against Tottenham, so we had to change things. Defensively, we’re up there as one of the best teams in the Premier League. So that is something to be positive about. But we have to be balanced. The attacking bit is more difficult than the defending, so consistency always helps,” Potter said.
One of the players who has been a central figure around this whole turnaround is Mateo Kovacic. Graham Potter also highlighted his importance to the team. “He’s been the captain in both games, which tells you how influential he is. He’s determined and has character and courage. He is an important player for us,” Potter continued.
