Chelsea’s easy start to the 2014/15 season continues when they face their second newly promoted side in two weeks.
Chelsea welcome new boys Leicester City to Stamford Bridge, after they shocked Everton with a decent display in their 2-2 draw last weekend.
Chelsea got off to a decent start last round with a 3-1 thrashing of Burnley.
Their new boys Diego Costa impressed with a brace, in what was a dominant performance.
Chelsea’s starting eleven appears set to be of the same this week, while there are major fitness doubts about Nigel Pearson’s Leicester boys.
In particular, Marc Albrighton and Jamie Vardy, who has recently signed a new four-year deal with the Foxes, while Matthew Upson remains sidelined by a foot injury.
Prediction:
I believe that Chelsea will be far too classy for Leicester in this match – it is a tough ask for the new club to travel to Stamford Bridge in just the second match of the season.
Chelsea 3-0 in convincing fashion.
