Hello and welcome to live coverage of this afternoon's clash Premier League clash between Leicester City and Swansea City. A win for the home side could see them push themselves off the bottom and level with 17th placed Hull City.

Nigel Pearson: "We’re coming up against a team who have their best-ever points total in the Premier League, so they’ve had another successful season and are a very good side. We’re going to have to play well again, but the emphasis is very much on what we do ourselves. It’s important for us at this stage of the season to be in touch. I think one of the potential problems that we have to deal with, is that people are now looking at it overly optimistically. We have belief in ourselves obviously and back-to-back wins give us better opportunities and probably applies more pressure on other people."

Leicester looked practically dead and buried a few weeks ago but back-to-back victories over West Ham and West Brom in recent weeks have put them in touch of safety. Buoyed by the fact that the home team has won the last seven matches between these two sides, the Foxes know that a win by more than three goals will see them out of the relegation zone. Swansea are sitting in eighth and have been left with very little to play for, as they sit seven points off seventh and four clear of ninth. Garry Monk's side are, however, unbeaten in their last three.
