Off we go! Leicester in all white today.

Steve in Milan: Seems to be a theme here that only Rodgers is missing. Everyone picked Vardy as captain of their Fantasy team today as we all think he would score and win the game. Hope they lose now.

Steve has taken the news, er, well.

Here come the players. A reminder of the teams - Leicester's heavily rotated!

Corin Wright: Heavy rotation was expected for Leicester... the best fantasy managers do their research.

Less than 10 minutes to go.

Leicester can move within a point of the league leaders with victory. Crystal Palace can move within a point of the top 10 with victory.

Keep it tight!

Crystal Palace have an exciting front three of Wilfried Zaha, Christian Benteke and Eberechi Eze but the flip side of that is that they do seem to be more open at the other end than usual.

They have conceded a lot of goals over Christmas so I think, first and foremost, Eagles boss Roy Hodgson will look to keep things tight against Leicester.

I still think the Foxes will find a way through, though. We saw yet again against Manchester United on 26 December that it doesn't matter if Jamie Vardy hardly has a kick all game, one chance is all it takes.

Prediction: 1-1

It's been a year like no other on the football pitch and off it. But what can you remember about football in 2020?

We've set 12 questions to test your knowledge, one for each month of the year.

See how you get on.

Alan Shearer will be disappointed to see Jamie Vardy on the bench. He is one goal short of equalling the Premier League record for reaching double figures in away goals in the most different seasons (currently five by Tottenham's Harry Kane).

Kyle: Leicester don't play there next match till Sunday. That's 6 days they have before their next game. A Leicester win has them 2nd and a point behind Liverpool. What is Rodgers doing awful team selection. Go for it get the win keep pressure on Liverpool.

There have been 27 goals scored in the last eight fixtures between these two clubs and Palace have gone 14 league games without a clean sheet.

They have lost six of their 11 home matches post-lockdown, winning twice and drawing three times, having taken just eight points from a possible 21 at Selhurst Park this season.

In contrast, Leicester's total of 28 points is their third-highest after 15 matches of a Premier League season.

Brendan Rodgers' side have recorded seven victories in eight games against sides currently in the bottom half of the table.

And Leicester have taken 18 points from seven away fixtures, the second-highest tally in the division.

Richard: Played Vardy as a triple captain. Vardy on the bench. OK.

JB2020: Can't wait to lose to Palace today. Completely agree that players need to be rested, but this side won't get a result.

Everton have the same squad available from their win at Sheffield United, limiting the opportunity for rotation.

Richarlison is sidelined due to concussion protocols, while James Rodriguez, Allan, Lucas Digne and Fabian Delph are all unavailable.

Manchester City are expected to make several changes, although Gabriel Jesus and Kyle Walker are self-isolating after positive coronavirus tests.

Ilkay Gundogan will be assessed for a knock but Eric Garcia remains out.

It's not been quite as rosy for Crystal Palace, who sit outside the top 10 having failed to gain consistency since the restart.

Since thumping relegation-battlers West Brom 5-1 at the beginning of the month, they have suffered a 7-0 hammering by Liverpool and a 3-0 defeat to Aston Villa.

A 1-1 draw against Tottenham showed promise though, but Palace have been fairly underwhelming at home so far.

A win today would see them close the gap on the top 10 and come within a point of West Ham.

Nine of Leicester striker Jamie Vardy's 11 goals so far this season have been scored in away matches.

But he's on the bench, much to the delight of Darren from Torquay.

Leicester are keeping up with the pack at the top of the table. Three tough fixtures coming into this match - against Manchester United, Tottenham and Everton - saw them pick up a respectable four points.

But they can move within a point of leaders Liverpool with victory here today (albeit having played a game extra). That would be a decent end to the year wouldn't it?
