Vicente Iborra and Victor Lindelof go head to head

A large part of Leicester's great success that season stemmed from their ability to play just two central midfielders and compete with everyone else who normally field three and while the loss of N'Golo Kante greatly negated that last season, the budding partnership between ex-Sevilla man Vicente Iborra and the young Nigerian Wilfried Ndidi has given the King Power - and Puel - reason to believe they are onto something good here.

While the game was 11 v 11, they always looked like they were up for it - and stood toe-to-toe, and at times bettered, the might of Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba in the middle of the park... overall Ndidi was arguably the Foxes best player on the night, though it will be Maguire - and Vardy - who will steal the headlines
