    "Burnley have had a couple of chances to get back into the game and Gareth Barry has made some important challenges. But Everton are on top really, they've been causing Burnley problems."

    Just to clarify, as it stands Leicester are up to 18th in the Premier League table, in the drop zone only on goal difference. Hull are the side watching on nervously.

    Burnley are going to the bottom of the table, with QPR the meat in a relegation sandwich.

    "A standing ovation for the home side. A strong performance from Leicester, with the fans and players singing off the same hymn sheet. It is a lead the home side richly deserve. There was not much for Swansea to enjoy in the first half apart from the sunshine."

    Stupid, stupid stuff. Ashley Barnes is on a booking and slides in on Seamus Coleman on the halfway line, it's a red card all day long.

    There was no need to slide in. It's one thing defending from the front but a wise head needed.

    "Leicester want to get into half-time in front, they deserve the lead, for the first 25 minutes they were absolutely outstanding. Swansea started to come back into it. The next goal will be absolutely pivotal."

    Palace are still plugging away in search of an equaliser. The ball falls for the bearded Mile Jedinak on an angle in the box but his shot goes flies over the bar.

  10. SITTER!published at 15:44 British Summer Time 18 April 2015

    What a miss! The Potteries need to open up and swallow Steven N'Zonzi, who has just missed an absolute sitter.

    The hosts work a neat free-kick, it's headed on and the midfielder is unmarked three yards out. Pretty much any contact and it's a goal but the ball rolls off his ankle and goes wide. He hangs his head in shame.

    Championship: Brentford's Alex Pritchard converts from Andre Gray's cross to put the Bees ahead against Bolton. But bad news for another play-off hopeful as Derby have conceded an equaliser at Huddersfield, where it is now 1-1. Bournemouth will go top with a win. But they will have to come from behind to do so as Kieran Lee (pictured) has put Sheffield Wednesday 1-0 ahead.

    League One: Leyton Orient have collapsed. They trail 4-0 at MK Dons, with all four goals coming in a 15-minute spell.

    League Two: Carlisle are fighting to stay in the Football League, Plymouth aiming for three points to stay in the play-offs. But it is going to be an unhappy, long journey home for the Argyle fans if this stays the same. They trail 1-0 after Gary Dicker's goal for the hosts.

    "Swansea are coming back into the game and are enjoying longer spells of possession. Sigurdsson and Shelvey are trying to probe. I would like to see more from Oliveira."

    Leicester fancy a second before the break. Wes Morgan, of all people, pops up on the right and finds Marc Albrighton, whose cross is swung in but met by a desperate defensive header from Ashley Williams. The home crowd roar their approval. Leicester have been very good this half.

    "Four four two" shouts Nigel Pearson. Four four two, he repeatedly brandishes with his fingers. I think he wants his team to play four four two.

    Danny Ings appears to have an injury for Burnley, that would be bad news. But he's back on his feet and fashions an opening for Ashley Barnes, who is closed down by a brilliant sliding tackle from Gareth Barry.

    Ings is not 100%, but maybe a 60% fit Ings is better for the Clarets than anyone else?

    "Tony Pulis has been a master of defending deep at all the clubs he's been to over the years. West Brom are doing well but Glenn Murray just set up a great chance (see 15:34) for Crystal Palace."

    "Vicarage Road erupts in jubilation as the crowd are convinced Matej Vydra has scored but the striker's shot into the ground in fact thunders off the crossbar.

    "The nerves of the crowd are clearly evident and they are almost trying to will the ball into the net. Watford are on top but Birmingham are keeping plenty of men behind the ball and thus far protecting their goal well."

    Swansea have steadied the ship a bit at Leicester. It would have been a big ask for the home side to keep up the frantic attacking pace they set in the opening quarter. However, Garry Monk's side have yet to really test Kasper Schmeichel.

    Sadio Mane is the best player on the park and the Saints frontman spins out of one challenge and perfectly plays in right-back Nathaniel Clyne. Clyne gallops into the box but he's well closed down and can only slice over.

    Moon-like at the Britannia today. No atmosphere.
