    It looks like Jeffrey Schlupp has taken Marc Albrighton's place on the left of midfield. It's a 4-5-1 and Andy King is on to be the most advanced midfielder it seems, pretty much behind Jamie Vardy at the moment. 

    I'll check when it settles down, my initial thought was Riyad Mahrez would move up top with Vardy.

    Some drive in Watford's midfield as Mario Suarez bursts through some tackles to reach a point where he can have a dig some 30 yards out. It's a good hit and a deflection takes some sting off it... good hands by Kasper Schmeichel.

    I'll miss Shinji Okazaki. The guy is a one man destruction derby.

    Couple of changes for Leicester to tell you about. Jeffrey Schlupp is on for Marc Albrighton, while Andy King replaces Shinji Okazaki.

    So how does this pan out? We have a big 45 minutes ahead. Can Leicester go five points clear?

    Odion Igahlo and Troy Deeney were at one point spearheading a care free and thriving Watford side this season but the goals have dried up.

    Recent results show the Hornets have hit a dry patch. They have not scored in six of their last eight Premier League games.

    I became an Arsenal fan as a 6 year old when Mickey Thomas slammed home at Anfield in 1989. How many Leicester fans could be born this season if they win the PL?!

    A quick look back at the welcome Watford fans gave their players earlier. Looked a picture so here is a picture.

    That will do us for a bit as the rain sweeps in at Vicarage Road. Penny for your thoughts if you're of a Tottenham, Arsenal or Manchester City persuasion?

    Leicester were bright early on but it's been pretty even in truth.

    My colleague Alistair Magowan is glued to the Sport Relief five-a-side. I've just posted a link below if you are interested. 

    In other news I think Claudio Ranieri is now wearing an official Leicester City coat over is smart blue winter coat. He must be boiling.

    Troy Deeney chases a lost cause and almost gets a reward as Wes Morgan does not get much on his header back to the goalkeeper. Deeney was set to pounce but Kasper Schmeichel rushed out.

    The corner is cleared but Leicester can come again as Danny Simpson gets it wide, chance to cross at the big men who are still up. In comes his delivery and Wes Morgan heads tamely at goal.

    Not a great cross in all honesty, no zip on it and it left Morgan with a lot to do.

    Just five to the break, would this be a good result for Leicester? Another game ticked off with not too much damage done.

    I've got Jamie Vardy as captain of the fantasy football team so could do with some action at least.

    Nice stuff in midfield from Danny Drinkwater as he switches play and Marc Albrighton wins a corner.

    Danny Drinkwater gets up to win a header in midfield but Watford build from the scraps and Nordin Amrabat will cross from the right... nicely defended again by the away side. Here is my man Shinji Okazaki crashing into another victim and conceding a free-kick 40 yards out.

    Mario Suarez is the busiest player on the pitch so far with 40 touches. N'Golo Kante has 34, Odion Ighalo just seven.

    Nice trickery from Odion Ighalo near the area and he bamboozles Wes Morgan who has to foul him. That should be a booking but isn't. Ben Watson will deliver this from a good area but not for the first time this evening his ball in is heavy - goal kick.

    Shinji Okazaki is a loveable sort. Not the biggest but what's there of him is a bit of a battering ram. He seems to lack a great touch and wonderful ability but races around clattering into all and sundry. It's admirable graft and he catches a clearance flush into his body from close range. He sits on the floor vacant as if to suggest he's had enough.

    A better few minutes for the home side as good midfield work by Ben Watson and Mario Suarez keeps Leicester pinned in a little. The ball is being recycled well and a corner is won.

    It's headed and then hacked away.
