What are you on about, mate?' – Leicester City's Luke Thomas in shock at  whirlwind 12 months - Leicestershire Live

This Tuesday night we are back in Premier League action as we face, you guest it… Chelsea!
After beating them in the FA Cup Final on Saturday evening, which myself (Sam) and a handful of the content team went live in and around the stadium, which if you haven’t watched yet don’t forget to go to Leicester Fan Tv to watch the content, we are back shortly after celebrations to focus on Tuesday night against The Blues.

This match could be a make or break for us, and we have to face Chelsea again which could make history again, after beating them to win the FA Cup for the first time ever, if we win this Tuesday we could make the Top 4 again for the 2nd time in history, playing in Champions League football again!

Like last season, it’s come down to the final matches of the season, which in hindsight it shouldn’t when you realise we’re dropping points to Newcastle and a 10 man Southampton team, but with 2 games to go this week we MUST win! It’s a 6 pointer tonight for the fight in the top 4, and whoever wins tonight might take that spot!

With Liverpool winning last night, with their Keeper Alison scoring a 95th minute goal, yes you read that right, to win 3 points for them, they are now looking to fight for the top 4 to!

As we are facing Chelsea who are in the top 4 along with us, and as the points are tight at the top, a draw would be a good result for us, but we CANNOT lose if we want to stay in the top 4, as we could drop out with Liverpool speeding up to the race… Can we do it?!

We have played Chelsea a total of 29 times in the PL, winning only 6 of those matches, drawing 9 and losing 14 of those matches, but in the last 5 meetings, we have won 2 and drawn 3! Hopefully we can keep this unbeaten record against them going!

In the clubs last match (minus the FA Cup) Leicester beat Manchester United, and Chelsea lost to Arsenal, and with us winning the FA Cup, we are going into tonight’s match with higher hopes!
