Marc Albrighton: 'Leicester City will make life tough for Chelsea'

Marc Albrighton believes that Chelsea will arrive at the King Power Stadium this evening feeling cautious, as they prepare to take on a buoyant Leicester City side.

Marc Albrighton has insisted that he and his Leicester City teammates are relishing the chance to halt Chelsea's Premier League title charge.

The Blues can move within three points of their first league crown in five years if they pick up a victory at the King Power Stadium this evening.

Leicester will not make it easy for them, though, having won each of their last four games to climb out of the relegation zone for the first time since November.

Ahead of this evening's clash, Albrighton told the club's official website: "Obviously it's a massive ask. We've just won four on the bounce and everyone is looking to us to take it to Chelsea, which we will do.

"We'll have a right go at them. I'm sure this place will be rocking under the lights against probably the champions-elect. It's going to be some atmosphere. We're looking forward to it. It'll be a tough game but one we'll relish.

"They won't be coming here thinking it's going to be an easy game, that's for sure. They know that we gave them a game at their place earlier in the season and they've seen our performances of late. They know we'll be confident and what to expect from the crowd and fans here on Wednesday night. They'll be wary of us."

Chelsea are currently 10 points ahead of the chasing pack at the summit, while the Foxes are one point clear of the drop zone.
