Jan Kirchhoff and Yann M’Vila take on N’Golo Kanté and Danny Drinkwater in an intriguing meeting between two formidably strong central midfield departments as two teams with broadly similar playing philosophies lock horns. Jermain Defoe will hope to upstage Jamie Vardy on a day when Sunderland aim to prove they are not quite as bad as their position, third bottom in the table, suggests. Sam Allardyce’s problem is that Leicester will want to remind everyone – Tottenham particularly – why they would make worthy champions. Louise Taylor
