Leicester City travel to Cardiff City in the first game since the tragic helicopter accident that killed owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha and four others last weekend.
The Foxes, who drew 1-1 with West Ham prior to the tragedy, postponed their midweek League Cup tie with Southampton but will be looking for a first win since late September in the Welsh capital in honour of their late Thai owner.
Cardiff were well beaten by Liverpool last weekend after their win over Fulham the week previous, but they will be looking to get points on the board with fixtures against Tottenham, Chelsea and Manchester City all out of the way.

Player to watch
Ben Chilwell: The left-back continues to churn out performance after performance and he was once again the bright spark against West Ham. The Foxes struggled to get on the front foot for large parts of the game but the England international always seemed the most likely outlet for Leicester to get them going forward. He will be looking to cause more problems to a shaky Cardiff defence at the weekend.

There are seven - count them, seven - live games in the Premier League today with crucial clashes at the top and bottom of the table.
We will have all the latest throughout the day so sit back, relax, open up a browser tab, and stick with us for what promises to be an exciting day of action.
First up it's Bournemouth vs Manchester United from the Vitality Stadium. A game that features one of the form teams in the top flight. And Manchester United.
Without further ado, off we go.
Jose Mourinho claims his touchline swearing was not offensive after being cleared of an FA charge for using foul or abusive language.
After coming from behind to beat Newcastle 3-2 late last month, amid a backdrop of uncertainty about his position, tensions boiled over at full-time as the 55-year-old made his way towards the tunnel.
Footage showed the Manchester United manager making comments in Portuguese, at one point looking into a camera, as he headed down the touchline, leading to an FA charge for using abusive, insulting or improper language.

There's understandably a lot of focus on today's visitors but it's time for us to talk about Bournemouth too, writes Kishan Vaghela ahead of today's game.
The team news is in and for Manchester United there's a big name absentee.
Romelu Lukaku is not even in the squad for today's game with fit-again Alexis Sanchez starting ahead of Marcus Rashford.
