Leicester will look at Saturday's game as an opportunity, despite their dreadful start to this season, to escape the bottom three and move within two points of their opponents Crystal Palace.
An eighth defeat in nine would leave their previously sought-after manager Brendan Rodgers in a perilous position.
Remarkably, the statistics say only Manchester City have managed more passes than Leicester in the Premier League this season. Harvey Barnes and James Maddison have looked good on the wings, moving inside to leave space for the full backs to travel down the flanks.
