Leicester vs Chelsea: Kick-off time and TV channel information for Premier League clash

Leicester host Chelsea on the final day of the Premier League season looking to cap an impressive turnaround under Brendan Rodgers.

The hosts, having beaten Chelsea 1-0 in December, are looking to complete the league double over the Blues for the first time since the 2000/01 season.

Leicester have won four of their last five league games at home and will look to continue this run on Sunday.

The visitors, fresh off their Europa League semi-final win over Eintracht Frankfurt on penalties, may be forgiven for taking their foot off the gas on Sunday given Champions League football for next season is already secured.

Chelsea can, though, hold off their rivals for third with a win while this could prove to be Eden Hazard’s last Premier League game.

What time does it start?

Leicester vs Chelsea kicks off at 3pm on Sunday May 12.

Where can I watch it?

The match will not be shown live in the UK.

Highlights will be shown on Match of the Day on BBC One at 10.30pm.

Predicted line-ups

Leicester: Schmeichel; Pereira, Maguire, Evans, Chilwell; Tielemans, Ndidi; Albrighton, Choudhury, Maddison; Vardy

Chelsea: Kepa; Zappacosta, Azpilicueta, David Luiz, Alonso; Jorginho, Kovacic, Barkley; Pedro, Higuain, Hazard

Odds…

Prediction… Leicester 2-1 Chelsea

The hosts are in good form and are enjoying life under Brendan Rodgers - lest we forget after a week of madness they were 15 minutes and a Vincent Kompany thunderbolt away from holding the champions Manchester City.

Chelsea now only have pride and a Europa League final to play for and, after their grueling semi-final win on Thursday, expect them to be rather sluggish on Sunday.
