LEI Vs BHA Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Chelsea’s defeat gives Brighton a golden opportunity to ease their way into third place.
Finally putting the brakes on a two match losing spree as they registered a much needed 2-1 win against Sheffield United, Leicester City managed to maintain their status as a top 4 side. And the side has been accorded with the chance to nail down its place in the echelons of the points tally with a win today taking them into 3rd spot.
With Chelsea slipping to a listless 1-0 defeat against Everton on Saturday, Leicester City can move two points clear of third placed Chelsea today. It’s a prize set to bolster the side when they come across Brighton, a club which has failed to address its defensive predicaments.
After an impressive stoutheaded performance to hold Liverpool to a 1-1 draw, Brighton were at their dismal best at the back as they conceded a late penalty to Southampton to allow their opponents conduct a 2-1 heist on the day.

Goal-Keeper
We begin our set of picks with the selection of Mathew Ryan from Brighton. He’s far from been at his best this season but he’s a well endowed shot stopper, a player who has the skill set to put on a brave front in the face of adversary.
Defenders
Although they haven’t been the most solid of backlines off late, if there’s any side capable of emerging with a cleansheet today, its Leicester City. The side is way better a defensive unit when it comes to Brighton and the small glimmer of a chance of them emerging with a shut down sees us opt for Jonny Evans, Wesley Fofana and James Justin from the club.
Midfielders
Across the last couple of seasons, Youri Tielemans has nailed down his place in Leicester City’s playing 11. His ball handling abilities and ability to make his presence felt in the side’s attack have seen him become a mainstay in the club’s gameplan.
James Madison is gradually starting to recover his touch with his assist the last time around being a crucial one. Brighton will meanwhile see us opt for Pascal Gross who has two pentolites to his name in two straight ties with Solly March with the two goals linking up.
Strikers
Danny Welbeck has now won penalties in two ties on the spin to see him complete our set of picks from the visiting team. The opposition’s top scorer, striker Jamie Vardy will find company in Ayoze Perez who scored for the club the last time around.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Vardy’s 9 goals see him step into our side as the captain while Tielemans is the vice-captain.
