Ah that is wonderful stuff from Riyad Mahrez! Pressure? Nerves? Not on your life. Mahrez pulls off at least three nutmegs in a 30-second spell down the right but West Brom's legion of four centre-halves defend his cross well.

The crowd are rocking already...

Bournemouth off to a flier too as Matt Ritchie crashes in a low shot from a tight angle but man mountain Fraser Forster makes a big save at the front post. 

Players out, formalities dealt with, eyes turned to the sky in dismay at the pouring rain. We are under way in the Premier League.

"They've taken everything in their stride. A few setbacks and they go and win at Manchester City. This is a game they should win if they are going to win the title and this will be a tough game for them."

Flags, pageantry, horns, cameras - it's all going on at the King Power. The league leaders are about to arrive onto the field...

Walkout protests appear all the rage these days... and there's another planned at Villa Park tonight after 74 minutes.

With their team bottom of the table, eight points from safety and only three Premier League wins all season, fans plan a protest at owner Randy Lerner.

Supporters intend to stage the 'Out the Door on '74', external campaign in the next three Premier League home games against Everton, Tottenham and Chelsea.

...but some matter more than others. Even a win tonight for Aston Villa wouldn't be anywhere near enough, right? 

It is wet and it is cold up in Sunderland. Most fans are finding refuge at the back of the stands. If you are there and wearing less than four layers I pity you.

I love Goodison Park as much as the next man - but a new ground for Everton has got to be priority one hasn't it...?

The announcement that Farhad Moshiri is to be Everton's new major shareholder ends a decade-long search for investment by chairman Bill Kenwright.  

There will be some major items on the new Everton owner's agenda when he settles to his task, namely the next move on whether the club moves ground or considers redeveloping Goodison Park - and also how to keep the club's most coveted players, with top scorer Romelu Lukaku and England pair John Stones and Ross Barkley expected to attract serious interest this summer.

For Everton, however, they will hope Moshiri's arrival will finally provide them with the financial power they have lacked to threaten the elite at the top of the Premier League.

Chelsea manager Guus Hiddink: "Two players who are not used to playing many games are starting tonight, Bertrand Traore and Kenedy. They are knocking on the door and are doing well in training. They come in late in games and do well so they deserve to start. This is very tricky, this is a big game for Norwich. In Champions League games, concentration is high and I hope we do not need a wake up call for this game."  

Sunderland boss Sam Allardyce on selecting Jack Rodwell: "He gives us more attacking options against a Palace side we have to break down. It’s about our team trying to produce the same performance as against Man United the other week. It’s a big week and we've thrown the chance of points away on Saturday (against West Ham) and put pressure on ourselves. All games are difficult at the moment."

Former Norwich goalkeeper Bryan Gunn on BBC radio 5 live: "The bonus for Leicester City is, if they can carry on, the least they can expect is a Champions League place.

"Norwich eventually fell to third in the 1992-3 season, and qualified for the Uefa Cup, which gave our fans a fantastic experience in the following season.

"When you think of Norwich, most people remember the Bayern Munich win.

"But it wasn’t until March where Manchester United overtook us and went on to win the title. If Leicester can win their games, games that are winnable, who knows what they can do?"

Leicester City

Leicester midfielder Andy King: "It's hard to describe what is going on, it is something we will look back on in a few years' time I think. Nothing has been achieved yet and we have 11 big games left.

"We didn't deserve to be bottom of the table this time last year but that is how football works. The fans have been outstanding all season and we are looking to send them home happy again tonight."

Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew: "Sunderland are a good team. Sam Allardyce has got them organised and strong in set plays. We had a good result here last year (4-1 win) and we want to follow that up. We have the same ref and I'm hoping that’s an omen."

New investment, new expectations, new pressure on Roberto Martinez?

Everton fans are hoping Iranian billionaire Farhad Moshiri's muti-million pound injection is the start of an exciting new chapter in the history of the Toffees.

The Goodison Park messageboards are awash with chatter about a new stadium, new players and keeping hold of prized assets like Ross Barkley, John Stones and Romelu Lukaku.

But can Martinez keep his job?
