Leicester City vs. Chelsea, Premier League: Confirmed lineups

Laurence Griffiths/Getty Images

For this round of matches, the Premier League saved the best for last.  Or the worst for last, depending on the outcome of the next 90 minutes.  Win and Chelsea are BACK!  (Sort of.)  Lose and Chelsea are doomed.  (Still.)  A draw helps no one, keeping Chelsea in limbo and denting Leicester's title hopes.

Come on, CHELSEA!
