Tottenham Hotspur v Leicester City is go ... 1 min: Leicester get the ball rolling in the last of today's three Premier League games.

James Maddison gets to the ball in front of Dier, hooking the ball over the defender and into the back of the Spurs net. The Uruguayan advances, picks his spot and fires the ball home off the upright to leave Ndidi standing with his head in his hands. 44 min: Danny Ward has been unconvincing in the Leicester goal tonight and throughout the eartly stages of this season but he saves his team’s bacon on this occasion. Leicester took the lead through a retaken Youri Tielemans penalty, only to concede back to back goals from corners. 49 min: Showing little sympathy for his teammate in his hour of need, Jonny Evans picks out Ndidi, who is being tightly marked by Hojbjerg, with a hospital pass out of defence to the midfielder’s feet. He glides a little right before bending a shot from distance around Faes and past the despairing dive of Danny Ward. “I was really frustrated to be honest because of course[apart from not socring] I could have done much better than what I did in the last couple of games. “I like to shoot from outside the box - I’ve practiced that since I was a kid. I’m glad I’ve been able to help the team, that is really important and I can go to national duty with new energy. Even now after training, if I have time, I try to practice from that position and hitting the top corner. “In the first half, it seemed like the Leicester that we know and the Brendsan Rodgers side we know. James Maddison: “It’s tough to kind of debrief it in my head so soon after but obviously people will check the scoreline, see 6-2 and think Leicester got battered again but I don’t think that was the case,” he tells Sky Sports.

Leicester's run of five consecutive Premier League defeats has piled pressure on manager Brendan Rodgers. They face a tough task against Tottenham, ...

UK: Sky Sports will show the match on its Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League channels. Conte has indeed decided to drop Son Heung-min to the bench, with Dejan Kulusevski and Richarlison starting in attack alongside Harry Kane. 1 hr 40 mins from kickoff: After an impressive, unbeaten start to the Premier League season, things all went a bit 'Spursy' in midweek for Antonio Conte's men. Ndidi has been filling in at centre-back recently and Leicester are a weaker team without him in the engine room, as some fairly dismal results suggest. Maddison has Spurs scrambling with a fine crossfield ball and Sanchez slides in on Justin, somehow avoiding making contact until the wingback gets into the area. Lloris launches himself to his right and produces a superb save to deny Tielemans. 27th minute: Into the net again, but Sanchez is penalised for a foul on Ward. That's exactly why Leicester are on the bottom of the table. Kane trots back to have a word, presumably along the lines of asking what on earth is going on. Maddison flips one into the box and Daka gets to the header ahead of Sanchez. Some majestic play from the likes of Perisic and Maddison and the sort of defending that will leave Brendan Rodgers tearing his hair out and Antonio Conte...nevermind. Barnes and Daka shift a flowing Leciester attack in that Maddison looks poised to convert.
