Chelsea have already sealed their place in the Champions League next season and they can go one better by securing third spot on the league table if they see off Leicester City in their rescheduled game on Thursday night. Ahead of the game, Chelsea are favourites to take the three points at stake.

Manager Thomas Tuchel is expected to make some changes to his starting XI for the Leicester City game in comparison to the one that started the FA Cup final defeat at the hands of Liverpool. Tuchel would be hoping that his team can bounce back from losing to Liverpool in the FA Cup on Saturday by picking up the three points at stake at the expense of Leicester City to secure third position.

Chelsea are two points ahead of London rivals Tottenham Hotspur on the league table, but they have played one game more than Spurs. Arsenal are two points off Spurs having played the same number of games with their North London rivals.

They had beaten Chelsea 11-10 on penalties to win the Carabao Cup title earlier in the season before the FA Cup title was added. The Reds are going for two more trophies to make it an unprecedented four trophies in the English top flight.
