Top Players
- Both sides were involved in shock results at the weekend, with Leicester winning away to Chelsea and Manchester City slipping to a home defeat to Crystal Palace.
- Leicester’s victory over Chelsea has eased the pressure on manager Claude Puel, while Pep Guardiola’s side are now under huge pressure after drifting four points off league leaders Liverpool.
- City have not lost back-to-back Premier League matches under Guardiola since December 2016 and that sequence involved a 4-2 defeat away to Leicester. The defending Premier League champions need a response on Boxing Day.
