    Another effort from Norwich, with Nathan Redmond forcing Schmeichel to save. Another Norwich corner, but the big Dane gathers.

    "You can see the confidence growing in the Norwich ranks."

    “He has to score, Cameron Jerome (see 15:39 entry). The thing he has done really well is the timing, he’s unchallenged but as he’s got to it he’s got to control it.

    "He needs a bit of neck action to help it in. It’s a big, big chance.”

  4. Leicester 0-0 Norwichpublished at 41 mins

    Is that the sun appearing in the Midlands? Still the rhythmic clapping comes from the Norwich fans. Shinji Okazaki tries to create a spark, but is crowded out. Leicester may need a rethink at half-time. At the moment, they are being stifled.

    Should be 1-0 to Norwich. Cameron Jerome should be burying this header. At least hitting the target. From a corner he jumps highest, but the glancing header is past everything, including the post. Alex Neil spits out some choice Anglo-Saxon in disappointment.

  6. Leicester 0-0 Norwichpublished at 37 mins

    Subdued once more inside the KP, with Norwich's wall of cheese and onion doing a job on Leicester. The Foxes haven't quite got the smarts to get through, while Norwich can't get enough bodies forward on the counter. Stalemate.

    Ooohhh, the story of Norwich's half so far. Some good stuff, but no end product. Robbie Brady dances down the left, crossing for Cameron Jerome, but his knockdown is to... no one. The Canaries have some chirp, mind.

    Somebody gamble! It flies all across the face of goal, leaving John Ruddy with his heart somewhere near his nostrils.

  9. Leicester 0-0 Norwichpublished at 32 mins

    Danger for Norwich here? Jonny Howson on Shinji Okakzaki. Free-kick, Leicester left, corner of the area. Marc Albrighton over it.

  10. Leicester 0-0 Norwichpublished at 30 mins

    Both managers are in their technical area, curiously in exactly the same corner. Norwich come, but are shut out, with Leicester then looking to release Jamie Vardy. It's the Norwich fans who are making the noise at the moment.

    "Mahrez is so good to watch, unless you're a defender and he's running at you."

    Better from Leicester, with that man Riyad Mahrez at the heart of it. Jinking down the right, a shot pinging around the Norwich box. The blue shirts queue up, but John Ruddy isn't called upon to save.

    Guy Mowbray might be right. Norwich are the team who have got it together at the moment, spending plenty of time in the home half. The King Power is slightly becalmed.

    If I'm honest, the quality has dipped. Neither side able to get hold of it, Norwich happy to keep the lines clear.

    Only two players from the Norwich team are spending much time in the Leicester half, according to the average positions of both teams below.

    Martin O'Neill, former manager of both these teams, is in the house. He looks confused, like a man who was actually supposed to be at Nottingham Forest today. When Timm Klose gives the ball away, Marc Albrighton shoots from distance, but miles over.

  18. Leicester 0-0 Norwichpublished at 21 mins

    When Norwich haven't got the ball, it's very much a 5-4-1. Nine men behind the ball, Jerome left up top. How do Leicester get through?

    "They’re actually trying to do a bit of a Leicester, Norwich. They are camped in their own half and trying to hit them on the break, but it’s difficult for the Norwich players to get out.

    "You expect Norwich to make mistakes defensively, but they have had 10 in the box and if Leicester are going to get a goal today it'll come from wide areas."

    Wes Morgan is a unit. If he says it's Christmas, start singing carols. A tangle has left Cameron Jerome on the floor. As Jerome complains, Morgan wears the look of a man who doesn't understand the fuss.
