Chelsea take on the visitors Leicester in the round 4 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, August 27th at Stamford Bridge (London).
Chelsea in this transfer "window" is active. Perhaps they do this rather inconsistently and chaotically. They can't help but raise questions about why they let Lukaku and Werner go on the cheap at the same time. Or when they finally reinforce the center of defense with someone else besides Koulibaly. Yes, and in the middle of the field it would be necessary to acquire someone. But, most importantly, it is clear that the "Blues" will live without Abramovich. New investors want to spend, and the departed management, headed by Granovskaya, will be gradually replaced. Tuchel's guys started the new season quite well. Yes, it was hard, with the only goal from the penalty spot, they beat Everton. But then there were spectacular 2-2 at home with Tottenham. They are remembered not only for goals on the field, but also for the clash between Thomas and Antonio Conte. With Leeds, the grand simply failed, conceding 3 unanswered goals.

Leicester are now frankly falling. It seems that last season was too disappointing for the project management. Then, after a couple of years of real (albeit unsuccessful) battle for 4th place, they finished only 8th. That is, the "foxes" were left without European cups at all! In the summer, for a long time, there were no full-fledged beginners at King Power at all. In the end, only Smittys, the Swansea goalkeeper, showed up. And then he was signed as a free agent. At the same time, Kasper Schmeichel was released to Nice for a miserable million. Yes, the Dane did not have the most convincing last season. But still, this is a legend, the champion of the times of Ranieri, and the undisputed No. 1 of the team. all last weeks there were talks about transfers of Vardy, Maddison and especially Fofana. You should not be surprised after that terrible start in the Premier League. Leicester lost a 2-goal lead over Brentford at home. And then he lost not only to Arsenal, but also to Southampton. In the League Cup "Stockport" was beaten only on penalties. And this means that they spent a lot of effort on the underdog.
Leicester won the cup against Chelsea last May. But after that, the “Blues” won the Premier League twice. And only at the end of the last championship the clubs recorded 1-1 in London. Bookmakers are confident that Chelsea will win. But both clubs do not shine, so it is more appropriate to use neutral “total under 3.0 goals”.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 scored goals.
