Leicester 0-1 Crystal Palace
Wilfried Zaha has scored more Premier League goals against Leicester (six) than against any other side.
Leicester 0-1 Crystal Palace
Youri Tielemans' cross is cleared by Luka Milivojevic. Leicester get another chance to cross but then Kelechi Iheanacho's chest down is too heavy in the box.

The pass from Eze was so good, it was so exquisite, it was so good.
The Tielemans incident, he got caught, I’m not sure it was a foul, he loses the ball on the halfway line, Benteke gets a nick.
It’s a great run from Zaha and the timing and the weight of the pass from Eze is spot on and Zaha is not going to miss from there.
Leicester 0-1 Crystal Palace
Jamie Vardy goes down the left and skips in between two players winning a foul.
I feel like Vardy has already had as many touches as he does in some whole games.
Leicester 0-1 Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace’s Wilfried Zaha has been involved in seven goals in his last seven Premier League appearances against Leicester, scoring six and assisting one.
He has equalled his best league goals tally in a campaign - 10, alongside 2018-19.
Wilfried Zaha
Wilfried Zaha's great record against Leicester continues.
Christian Benteke wins the ball off Youri Tielemans and gives it to Eberechi Eze.
Eze takes the ball on and then plays a perfect through ball into Zaha, who just sweeps the ball past Kasper Schmeichel in his stride.
Leicester 0-0 Crystal Palace
Leicester break and go close. Kelechi Iheanacho swings and tries a scissor-kick but misses the ball. The ball runs to Jamie Vardy who lashes wildly high and wide.
VAR might have had something to say about a high boot from Iheanacho had Vardy scored there.
Leicester 0-0 Crystal Palace
Good defending by Wesley Fofana, who steps in to hold off Wilfried Zaha and see the ball roll out for a goal-kick. Impressive strength.
Leicester 0-0 Crystal Palace

Leicester chop and change so much.
They constantly change in and out of possession and that’s where it becomes difficult for opposition managers like Roy Hodgson – what do you do?
Because there’s such an interchange in this side.

Lovre Marasovic: As a foxes fan I am obviously rooting for LCFC, but I would be very happy if West Ham secure top 4. They have been a huge suprise this season. Also, if they succed, that could be a major slap in the face for the "Super League".
Sulaimon Adelekan: Leicester City and Chelsea will claim the final two spots. Leicester will definitely get a win tonight to edge to the Champions League and Chelsea are doing so well under Tuchel to claim the final spot.
Leicester 0-0 Crystal Palace
Now Jamie Vardy latches onto a high ball but Cheikhou Kouyate puts his leg out to get it away from Vardy, who kicks him accidentally with the follow-through.
Leicester 0-0 Crystal Palace
Leicester go close as we hit the three-minute mark. Kelechi Iheanacho plays a lovely through ball to Jamie Vardy. His first touch takes him round Vicente Guaita - but the Palace keeper just gets his fingers to the ball and tips it off Vardy for a goal-kick.
Leicester 0-0 Crystal Palace
The players take the knee (except Wilfried Zaha) and we're under way.

Leicester v Crystal Palace (20:00 BST)
Memories abound inside the King Power Stadium of the last - and only - time Leicester qualified for the Champions League.
They won't be doing it as champions this time - but can the Foxes reach European football's top table again?
Leicester v Crystal Palace (20:00 BST)
Brendan Rodgers is unbeaten in all five Premier League matches as a manager versus Roy Hodgson (W4 D1).

Nathan Cole: It looks like Chelsea have the trickier fixtures but in the big games since Tuchel came in he has done well and they have squad depth.
Judith Taylor: Chelsea have the tougher run-in on paper, West Ham seem to have the easier run-in and Leicester can book third I think with a win tonight and another against Southampton on Friday, Chelsea also have the CL to worry about. So LC and WHU for me.

This should be a really good game. Leicester's form dropped off badly at the end of last season and they really need to win this if they are going to stay in the top four this time. I reckon they will do it.
Prediction: 3-2

Mark Lawrenson
BBC football expert
It's great to see Leicester in the FA Cup final but a top-four place has always been their target and the clubs below them have closed the gap on them in recent weeks.
Crystal Palace have already all but achieved their aim for the season, which is staying up, and I think the Foxes will want this more, especially after their recent wobbles in the league.
Lawro's prediction: 2-0
Leicester v Crystal Palace (20:00 BST)
Only the bottom three teams in the Premier League have suffered more home defeats this season than Leicester's seven.
