Chelsea vs Leicester live stream: How to watch Premier League football

Share

After tasting defeat last time these two sides met in the FA Cup final, Chelsea will be hoping for revenge against a Leicester side looking to sure up a Champions League berth with a Premier League win at Stamford Bridge. Don’t miss a moment with our Chelsea vs Leicester live stream guide.

These two sides met mere days ago at Wembley with Leicester lifting their first-ever FA Cup trophy. A second-half Youri Tielemans screamer was the difference-maker in that game with the Blues seeing a late equalizer agonizingly ruled out by VAR.

It’s a quick turnaround for both sides for today’s game though as attention returns to this important Premier League game.

Chelsea missed the opportunity to leapfrog Leicester in the league with a 1-0 defeat to London rivals Arsenal in their last league outing.

Leicester recorded an impressive win over second-place Manchester United in their last league game to remain in third place and keep their hopes of Champions League qualification in their own hands.

With Liverpool chasing, and Tottenham and West Ham still not mathematically out of the running for the remaining Champions League places, the three points on the line today could be the most important of the season.

Despite losing in his first cup final with Chelsea, Thomas Tuchel still has the chance to pick up some silverware this season with the Champions League final taking place later this month.

There’s plenty to play for in this top-tier Premier League game. Read on to find out how to watch a Chelsea vs Leicester live stream, no matter where you are in the world.
