    Antonio Rudiger chips the ball out towards Marcos Alonso, who gets a hearty boo from the Leicester fans for his troubles.

    He sails the ball in, looking for Alvaro Morata yet again, but a Leicester head clears.

    Jamie Vardy gets a mini telling-off from ref Lee Mason after a tackle on Marcos Alonso. Alonso was stretching for the ball, as was Vardy, and they ended up making contact.

    Adrien Silva is watching on from the stands, rather than on the pitch, which is where Leicester want him.

    They've acquitted themselves well so far, though. There's a bit of zip gone out of the visitors.

    Jamie Vardy absolutely does David Luiz on the run. Riyad Mahrez starts the move, threading the ball from the center of the pitch to find Vardy.

    The Leicester man accelerates, nipping away from Luiz, and shoots on the run, but the ball goes rolling past the far post.

    I would have thought Conte would have wanted one or two more players in the transfer window. But I look at their squad and they will be okay.

    They play such good football - I don't think they will be worried about any other team in the league.

    Quick as you like, Chelsea are down the other end. A short pass ends up in Fabregas' hands, who beats two Leicester players to set up Victor Moses at the near post. Moses chips it in, looking for Morata who is lurking by the net, but a Wes Morgan slide stops him in his tracks.

    Ooh, hello, here's a Chelsea free kick as Pedro is brought down by Wilfred Ndidi about 30 yards out.

    David Luiz stands over it, takes a deep breath and fires it through the wall - but Schmeichel, standing by the right post, collects it calmly.

    Chelsea have to really scramble to smother Islam Slimani, who is teed up by a fine move from the right from Riyad Mahrez. Slimani was on the edge of the box but he was hustled out by a sea of white shirts.

    Chelsea snare a corner on the right and Cesc Fabregas hoofs it in, but it's high and wide and Wes Morgan, under pressure from a lurking Alvaro Morata, nods it away.

    Conte's not particularly impressed that Morata fluffed his lines there - he's waving his arms furiously on the sidelines.

    Back on the field, Danny Simpson and Marcos Alonso crash into each other, and Simpson requires a bit of medical treatment after coming off the worse.

    That's a gorgeous pass from Cesc Fabregas to Morata, who was charging into the area, and the ball bounces off Morata's foot and towards Kasper Schmeichel, who had come haring out of goal. A delicious chip from Fabregas to start that move off.

    Marcos Alonso keeps in the ball on the left, cracks over a fine cross in to Cesc Fabregas - and he misses! Wes Morgan does the eventual tidying up.

    Chelksea give away a free-kick on the far side, which Mahrez stands over eagerly. He swings the ball in but it's Tiemoue Bakayoko who gets to it first and nods it away. It falls eventually for Marc Albrighton, who looks for Wes Morgan and ends up tapping the ball out.

    Some early head tennis between Tiemoue Bakayoko and the Leicester defence, but they're having none of it.
