Leicester is still the sensation team of the Premier League, holding on to the top of the table. They are currently in the 2nd position and are up against a motivated team. Nevertheless, they should play as usual, with a lot of defensive aggressiveness and attacks through the right wing, making good use of the offensive support of winger Simpson.

Confirmed Lineup: Kasper Schmeichel, Danny Simpson, Christian Fuchs, Wes Morgan, Robert Huth, N'Golo Kanté, Riyad Mahrez, Danny Drinkwater, Marc Albrighton, Jamie Vardy, Shinji Okazaki.

The away team is currently in the 7th position of the league, with 33 points won, after 9 wins, 6 draws and 7 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Norwich City, by (3‑1). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Arsenal, by (0‑0). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 15 goals scored and 17 conceded; against 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 18 goals scored and 12 conceded.

In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (5 out of 11 matches). Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition.

In 22 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 11 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 5 of their 11 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Stoke comes to this match after a goalless home draw against Arsenal. Although they are going through a good form moment, they aren’t usually very aggressive and need to work on their offensive efficiency and aerial play. Therefore, against a strong team in aerial play, they’ll need to be careful. Shaqiri, Cameron, Ireland and Given are injured and will be missing this match.

Confirmed Lineup: Jack Butland, Glen Johnson, Erik Pieters, Ryan Shawcross, Philipp Wollscheid, Ibrahim Afellay, Glenn Whelan, Xherdan Shaqiri, Joselu, Jonathan Walters, Mame Biram Diouf.
