CHELSEA either handed under-fire boss Graham Potter a stay of execution or provided the spark that will be the dawn of a new era depending on what way you look upon it after their Champions League win against Borussia Dortmund.
And Brendan Rodgers will be desperately hoping his Leicester City players can do the same on Saturday as he fights for his job and the Foxes scrap for survival.
Chelsea made it two wins in a row in midweek, but their 2-0 success over the high-flying Bundesliga challengers was more needed that their 1-0 win over Leeds United at the weekend.
For a man who has spent his entire time at Stamford Bridge seemingly facing the axe, this was a huge success and Potter will be hoping it kickstarts their season.
But it's a dreadful time for Leicester and Rodgers after last week's dismal loss at Southampton not only made it four losses in a row but has plunged them deep into relegation trouble with them sitting just two points above the drop zone.
Their fans aren't happy either and for almost the first time this season, Potter will go into Saturday's game unless less pressure than his opposite number.
How the bookies view it
Chelsea have gone odds-on in some places but there is still some 21/20 about with 10bet.
Leicester City can be backed at 11/4 with bet365 and the draw is 13/5 with SBK.
Recent head to heads
Chelsea won the corresponding fixture back in August 2-1 in London.
The Blues also won at the King Power convincingly last season and are unbeaten in the last four meetings between the clubs.
Players to watch
James Maddison took umbrage at criticism levelled at his side following that defeat at St Mary's so you would think he has a point to prove here. The talented playmaker is 24/5 to score anytime with UniBet.
Kai Havertz was the Chelsea hero against his countrymen in midweek after he converted a penalty and he is 13/5 to score anytime with bet365 on Saturday.
Anything else catch the eye?
Chelsea must have taken a huge confidence boost by winning in midweek and for the first time in a long while, they will be playing with not too much in the way of pressure on Saturday.
They appear to have sorted their defence out and can make it three wins in a row for the first time since October with a victory that will increase the pressure on Rodgers.
This could easily be a tight encounter with few goals. Leicester have failed to net in three of their last four matches and Chelsea's two goals in midweek was the first time they had managed that since the end of December.
Take a chance on under 1.5 goals at 5/2 with UniBet.
