Leicester vs. Chelsea takes place tonight in the Premier League.
Speaking ahead of the game, Leicester City forward Riyad Mahrez has insisted his side will play without pressure when they take on Chelsea.
The Foxes have emerged as the surprise package of the Premier League this season and were top of the table ahead of the weekend fixtures.
And Algeria international Mahrez, who has scored ten times in the league already this season and who netted a hat-trick against Swansea City last time out, says that there is no pressure on he and his team-mates to keep on performing.
“We don’t have any pressure. No-one said at the beginning of the season Leicester would be first in December,” he told his club’s official website.
“We’re training, laughing and joking and when the games come we work hard for each other.
“It doesn’t matter for us, it’s just a team. We focus on our team and Chelsea are a big club, but we’ll play like we always do.
“Last year was the first for a lot of players in the Premier League. We needed some games to get experience. I think the last year has helped a lot of players and now we are ready for every game.”
