    The players are back out on the pitch - fresh dry shirts and no doubt a quick blowdry. It's still raining.

    Get those towels out!

    Leicester deserve that lead, but the Swans do look a threat especially down the right through Modou Barrow.

  4. GREAT SAVE!published at 45+1 mins

    Leicester 1-0 Swansea

    Shinji Okazaki smashes a decent strike from 20 yards towards goal which Lukasz Fabianski has to tip over the bar.

    There cannot be much more rain left in those clouds - it is pelting it down.

  5. The call him "Wheels" Barrowpublished at 43 mins

    Leicester 1-0 Swansea

    It's that Modou Barrow again. He should be renamed Modou "I create a lot of chances" Barrow.

    The 23-year-old Gambian powers down the right and delivers another great ball which is headed into the six-yard area by Wayne Routledge. Leicester manage to clear though.

  6. Lurkingpublished at 40 mins

    Leicester 1-0 Swansea

    Swansea are now starting to look dangerous. 

    Modou Barrow plays in a cross from the right that Leicester full-back Danny Simpson has to head clear with Fernando Llorente lurking like a striker who lurks.

    I can't believe defenders are still falling for it. We saw it week in, week out last season.

    How many times have we seen Leicester do that? 

    Swansea are playing a high line and Vardy is immediately onto it.

    Leave that Vardy alone in your Fantasy teams - his party has just started!

    A lovely bout of one-touch football on the edge of the Leicester area ends with Danny Drinkwater playing the ball over the top for Jamie Vardy to chase.

    The England striker latches on to the pass and smashes his shot in off the post.

    That's his first of the season.

  11. YELLOW CARDpublished at 26 mins

    Leicester 0-0 Swansea

    Leicester defender Robert Huth goes into the book for a foul on Modou Barrow - it's a card each for the sides.

  12. A Swansea effort!!published at 25 mins

    Leicester 0-0 Swansea

    The Swans enjoy a (very) brief spell in the Foxes' half - Gylfi Sigurdsson even has the audacity to have a shot, which curls into the chest of Kasper Schmeichel.

    Leicester 0-0 Swansea

    Swansea haven't offered much as an attacking threat - they've been camped in their own half.

    Keeper Lukasz Fabianski hasn't had much to do, yet. Leicester are relentless at the moment.

    Leicester 0-0 Swansea

    Kyle Naughton is finding the going tough against Jamie Vardy on this skiddy surface.

    The ball bounces off the defender and into the England striker's path - he runs towards the byeline, tries to cut the ball back but it had already gone out of play.

    There's a big mistake in this game, I can sense it.

    Riyad Mahrez steps up but fires the free-kick a few yards wide and high of the Swansea goal.

    A poor effort to be fair.

  17. BIG CHANCE!published at 10 mins

    Leicester 0-0 Swansea

    The ball is played over the top for Jamie Vardy, who runs on to it but is brought down by Federico Fernandez,

    Yellow for the defender, free-kick for Leicester.

    This is a huge chance...

    One of you guys!

    Poor communication between Riyad Mahrez and Danny Simpson at the far post results in both fluffing a potentially good opportunity in front of goal.

    It's throwing it down at the King Power, by the way.

    Swansea's Kyle Naughton's just been knocked out by a Jamie Vardy shot. He seems OK, but he might not know what day it is.

  20. HALF A CHANCEpublished at 1 min

    Leicester 0-0 Swansea

    A Leicester ball from the left is floated in and defender Robert Huth flicks the ball towards goal with his head.

    Keeper Lukasz Fabianski collects, but it's one of those that might have been a problem if it had drifted either side of the keeper.

    Bright start for the Foxes.
