Claude Puel's exit from Leicester had seemed an inevitable outcome for many months and it may have a short-term boost by allowing the Foxes to play with less pressure.

At their very best Leicester are one of the best teams outside of the big six and they should be too strong for an injury-hit Brighton side in danger of slipping into serious relegation trouble.

Brighton have taken just two points from a possible 18 in 2019 and their struggles look set continue at the King Power Stadium.
