Ndidi looking to score third goal in 12 games against Chelsea

Wilfred Ndidi has scored twice in 11 appearances against Chelsea in the Premier League and the Leicester City midfielder will be looking to make it three in 12 games when he visits Stamford Bridge with the Foxes for their matchweek 28 fixture in the competition on Sunday.

Ndidi’s two goals against Chelsea are the most he has scored against any team in the competition and the 28-year-old will be looking to extend that record.

If he plays, it will be his 12th game against the west London side and it will equal the greatest number of games he has played against any Premier League side.

The Nigerian has scored 13 times in 210 appearances in the competition so far and knows he needs to help his team return to the King Palace stadium with a positive result as they stare an instant return to the Sky Brt Championship in the face.

Sunday’s game would be Ndidi’s 294th for the Foxes with the Premier League accounting for 211.

A win on Sunday will be his fourth in 19 appearances for the season and 81st in 211 games overall.
