    MAN OF THE MATCH?

    Chelsea close on third place with Leicester draw

    Chelsea all but guaranteed themselves a third-place finish in the Premier League courtesy of a 1-1 draw with Leicester City at Stamford Bridge. 

    James Maddison fired Leicester into a sixth-minute lead from the edge of the penalty area before Marcos Alonso met a Reece James cross on the volley to restore parity on 34 minutes.

    The hosts upped the ante after the interval with Romelu Lukaku heading wide, Christian Pulisic missing from close range and Antonio Rudiger being thwarted in a frenetic six-minute spell. 

    Further chances fell to Trevor Chalobah and James but the hosts were unable to find a winner. 

    The result takes Chelsea's points to 71, three more than Tottenham Hotspur with the Blues boasting a superior goal difference. 

    Leicester stay ninth with 49 points from 37 matches.
