Leicester vs Leeds LIVE commentary: Championship leaders set for key promotion clash – kick-off time, team news and how to follow
Runaway Championship leaders Leicester welcome Leeds to the King Power Stadium this evening, live on talkSPORT 2.
The Foxes have been superb so far this season and have lost just one of their opening 14 games, winning the rest.
They are charging towards promotion and if they win here, they will move 17 points clear of the Whites.
Meanwhile, Daniel Farke's men have started the season well too and have more points at this stage then Burnley amassed last year.
They are well positioned to finish inside the top two, even if catching the Foxes may be beyond them.
But as it stands, Ipswich are nine points clear of Leeds, so they need a win to close that gap.
These sides were both in the Premier League this time last year and played each other in April 2023 in a key relegation clash.
Both teams needed to win to give themselves a chance of avoiding the drop.
Luis Sinisterra put the Whites into the lead, but they couldn't get a second to put themselves into a commanding position, and Leicester scored a late equaliser.
Jamie Vardy was the hero for Leicester on the day, but they still went down by just two points, so might look back on that game and feel it was a missed opportunity.
The hosts are expected to be without Wilfred Ndidi due to a minor muscle problem.
Ricardo Pereira and Wout Faes are likely to be recalled into the side and Cesare Casadei will play instead of Ndidi.
Tom Cannon is still not able to make his debut and joins Yunus Akgun on the sidelines.
But Kasey McAteer could start after returning from injury.
Leeds will leave it until the last moment to decide if Sam Bryam, Joe Rodon or Crysencio Summerville will player after the trio were withdrawn against Huddersfield.
