    Chelsea will not believe it if they fail to level here. Is there time? Still they come forward.

    There were FOUR minutes added on.

    Chelsea 0-1 Leicester

    Antonio Rudiger rises highest at a corner but can only head wide of the goal, with Kasper Schmeichel nowhere.

    Chelsea 0-1 Leicester

    Kasper Schmeichel will not take long with this kick. Long. Chelsea bring it down and play it short, short, sideways. Leicester are camped deep for a big final few minutes.

    The away side fans' sing loud.

    Ben: Sarri cannot be stubborn and play without a striker! Giroud may not be the best, but he brings others into play ans challenges defenders.

    Deep: Don’t understand the craze over Jorginho. 2/3 of his passes are either backwards or 5 yard passes. That’s how he racks up the numbers. Not daring enough

    This was a big game for Claude Puel, I was at the cup game in midweek and a lot of fans were disappointed with the side he named as it was a big opportunity to win a trophy. He put a lot of trust in this squad today.

  10. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 84 mins

    Chelsea 0-1 Leicester

    Jamie Vardy comes off now - Kelechi Iheanacho the replacement.

  11. CHANCE!published at 82 mins

    Chelsea 0-1 Leicester

    Marc Albrighton brings a diving save from Kepa Arrizabalaga, low to his right. They are still creating chances, the away side.

    Demarai Gray is coming on to replace James Maddison.

    Chelsea 0-1 Leicester

    The Leicester fans sing loud as James Maddison swings in a free-kick deep in Chelsea turf to the far stick, where Wes Morgan inadvertently starts a Chelsea counter.

    Brilliant block from Ricardo Pereira to restrict the damage from an Eden Hazard searching pass.

    Olivier Giroud nods down, Eden Hazard can't quite stab at goal in the box.

  14. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 74 mins

    Chelsea 0-1 Leicester

    Olivier Giroud's not quite had the impact his manager will have wanted so far. Here's a foul in the box to add to an offside a few moments ago.

    Cesc Fabregas has come on now to replace Jorginho. That is their third change.

    FIFTEEN to go...

    They are absolutely flying here, Leicester. Marc Albrighton's brilliant right-wing cross is nodded away by Antonio Rudiger, just before Jamie Vardy could get to it.

  16. Postpublished at 67 mins

    Chelsea 0-1 Leicester

    Jorginho gives the ball away on the edge of his own box. Marc Albrighton pounces and crosses, Kepa spills it out to Jamie Vardy, he tries a backheel finish and it bounces into Cesar Azpilicueta's shin. The fans again appeal - for handball - but there was none.

    Chelsea 0-1 Leicester

    Jamie Vardy battles into the box. In front of the Leicester fans he goes down and there are claims. It was a fair tangle with Pedro, the referee waves play on.

  18. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 61 mins

    Chelsea 0-1 Leicester

    Mateo Kovacic off and Ruben Loftus-Cheek on. Willian also goes off to be replaced by Olivier Giroud.

  19. CLOSE!published at 59 mins

    Chelsea 0-1 Leicester

    Eden Hazard played in behind. He bears down on goal, the angle is tight but he strikes, aiming for the near post, and Kasper Schmeichel does really well to react and turn behind. A fine save.

    Still Chelsea with plenty of possession in front of Leicester's back line. How big a miss does Eden Hazard's in the first half look now?
