  1. Leicester 0-1 West Brompublished at 28 mins

    Two corners in fact, both cleared. When West Brom threaten to counter, Berahino gives away a free-kick. Yet more Leicester pressure. It could be a long night for the Baggies....

  2. Leicester 0-1 West Brompublished at 28 mins

    I wonder if we're seeing a pattern emerge? West Brom defending deep, Leicester knocking. At times, the Baggies have a back six. Leicester corner...

  3. Leicester 0-1 West Brompublished at 26 mins

    Leicester come down the right, first through Drinkwater, then through the electric Mahrez. Both times they are crowded out. West Brom have nine defending, five along the line of the six-yard box. And again... Mahrez's cross, Vardy's header.. straight at Ben Foster.

    Jay: Leicester should know well by now that in any match involving them it's the team with lower possession that wins

  5. Leicester 0-1 West Brompublished at 22 mins

    Leicester have had 60% of the possession and, as you can see from the average positions below, have committed a lot of men forward. Yet, they are behind. It begs the question, do they prefer to play without the ball?

    Jord: West Brom might be the most hated club in the premiership if they win tonight.

    Chelsea Warrior: Tony Pulis pulling all the strings.

  7. Leicester 0-1 West Brompublished at 18 mins

    West Brom are keeping the ball nicely, all as the Leicester fans sing and clap. Riyad Mahrez, by the way, is wearing gloves and a short-sleeved shirt. Lots don't agree with that kind of thing, but I can see the logic. You can have warm arms, but cold hands.

    David Ljunggren: Poor, poor play there from Huth, the last Leicester player you'd expect to mess up. The pressure starts to tell.

    lfcway: Time to find out what Leicester are made of.

    "That's the first goal Leicester have conceded at home in the league in 2016."

    Two things about that goal. One, it was a brilliant pass from Fletcher, sliding the ball into the channel for Rondon to run on to. Secondly, Roberth Huth got done very easily, losing a shoulder charge with Rondon. Immediately at the other end, Shinji Okazaki flicks over from close range. Could have been 1-1.

    GOAL - Leicester 0-1 West Brom (Salomon Rondon)published at 11 mins

    Goal for West Brom! We said this was open and with their first real attack, the Baggies take the lead. It's as simple as you like, with Leicester opened up very easily. It's a wonderful through ball from Darren Fletcher, with Salomon Rondon shrugging off Robert Huth and firing in via Kasper Schmeichel. Whodda thunk it?

  12. Leicester 0-0 West Brompublished at 10 mins

    The free-kick, from midway inside the West Brom half, carried all the way to the back post, where Andy King shoots over. This game is much more open than we might have expected it to be.

  13. Leicester 0-0 West Brompublished at 9 mins

    An excellent chant from the Leicester fans. "We were here when we were..." I'll let you guess the rest. Ooohhh, that's not great from Claudio Yacob, who upends Riyad Mahrez.

  14. Leicester 0-0 West Brompublished at 7 mins

    West Brom get out of their own half, but are being harried by the men in blue. Berahino runs the channel, but is nudged out of the way by Robert Huth.

  15. Leicester 0-0 West Brompublished at 5 mins

    Cleared, with the visitors pushing the ball all the way back to Kasper Schmeichel. Salomon Rondon is playing with chewing gum in his mouth. How is that possible?

  16. Leicester 0-0 West Brompublished at 3 mins

    Leicester are into their stride early, with Riyad Mahrez causing trouble down the right. An early roar inside the KP. West Brom, pinned back, have to concede a corner. 

  17. ouch!

    Leicester 0-0 West Brompublished at 1 min

    Christian Fuchs is down already. The Leicester full-back looks like he's taken a blow in the bread basket. He looks OK. If he comes off, fantasy football managers will be livid.

    Claudio Ranieri is standing on the touchline, pulling the collar of his black coat around his neck. His team are in their usual blue, West Brom in their change of red. Claudio and TP share a laugh before Hey Jude comes on the tannoy.

  20. 'Now we will see how Leicester operate'published at 19:42 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March 2016

    Jermaine Jenas
    Ex-Spurs & England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 live

    "Leicester's strength has been that collective team spirit they have. There are no so-called prima donnas, they are all singing off the same hymn sheet.

    "They don't seem to have any complaining on the pitch - they are a strong unit who all know their jobs but they are going to have games when they have a dip. That will start happening more and more. Teams will start dropping off at home and not giving them space. Then we will see how they operate chasing the title."
