Gary Lane: A coach told me long ago when I was young enough to play, either pass the penalty into the corner, or hit the thing as hard and low as you can.

Intriguing half. Could go either way. Vicente Guaita with the penalty heroics to deny Kelechi Iheanacho and his stuttering run.

Jeffrey Schlupp wins a corner for Palace right at the end of the first half...

Cleared by Jonny Evans.

Harvey Barnes sees a gap in the middle and cuts inside from the left. He shoots from distance but he's off balance and it's way off target.

Ben Rogers: This match is made for a Vardy super-sub cameo.

Mike Newton Ellis: Vardy on. Please!

Wilfried Zaha goes to run in behind but Tyrick Mitchell plays it short. James Justin reads it to intercept and switches it over to Harvey Barnes.

He plays it back over to Justin but he overcooks the through ball to Ayoze Perez. Leicester missing a spark.

Dennis Praet keeps the ball in play from Hamza Choudhury on the right and Cheikhou Kouyate gets just enough on the clearance to take it away from Kelechi Iheanacho.

Tyrick Mitchell and Iheanacho then come together just inside the box but the referee waves it away.

That penalty save from Vicente Guaita was his first in the Premier League and it was the sixth penalty he has faced in the competition.

He is the first Crystal Palace goalkeeper to save a penalty in the Premier League since Wayne Hennessey vs Southampton in September 2018.

JesboJb: Iheanacho has always seemed to be a confidence player. Rodgers might as well take him off now.

Ben: This game is far more entertaining than I thought it would be.

Luke Thomas takes another free-kick for Leicester on the right touchline and he curls it too deep.

Vicente Guaita isn't aware of his angles and ends up getting a hand to it. It was going straight out for a goal kick.

Ayoze Perez doesn't make the most of the corner though. Doesn't beat the first man. Fine him.

Luke: With Keepers being forced to stand on the line are these stuttering penalties now becoming redundant? GKs are not already fully committed before the kick anymore.

Moose and me: Did anyone actually think that Iheanacho would score that penalty? Don’t think even he thought he’d score.

They like a pen.

Ayoze Perez takes it and does go for goal but it needed something special. It's comfortable for the keeper.

Harvey Barnes spins Nathaniel Clyne on the left and wins a free-kick. Jonny Evans takes it and Leicester switch it around the back. They are controlling possession in the first half.

Christian Benteke then brings down Nampalys Mendy about 30 yards out. Ayoze Perez and Harvey Barnes might fancy it.

Oooh Kelechi Iheanacho should do better.

It's fizzed in with pace from the right by Dennis Praet and Iheanacho gets across to the front post and flicks it way over from a few yards out.

It did come at him fast but you would expect him to hit the target.

Kelechi Iheanacho makes another run in behind but James Tomkins does well to head it back to his keeper. Smart defending.

This is the chance.

Jeffrey Schlupp does really well on the left to beat his marker, get to the byline and cut it back for Andros Townsend.

He's in space in the box but skews the shot, sending it wide of the left post from close range. Let off for Leicester!

Ayoze Perez' cross deflects heavily and ends up bouncing off the top of the cross bar! Vicente Guaita isn't sure on it and is scrambling but when the rebound falls to Dennis Praet, he smashes it over from a tight angle.

Jeffrey Schlupp continues his run down the left and he's played in by Wilfried Zaha. He curls it into the box first time but Jonny Evans gets there ahead of Christian Benteke to clear.
