Minute
Description
76'
Vardy has been fairly quiet today since providing the assist for the goal, the striker has been well marked by the two Saints centre-back and he hasn't had much space to sprint into in behind.
74'
Southampton are still yet to make any changes here, but they might need to soon as Leicester are starting to pile on the pressure and the visitors are having to get everyone back behind the ball and defend.
72'
P. Højbjerg gets yellow.
Hojbjerg is booked for his late and blatant foul on Gray, after the winger skipped past him and ventured into the Saints final third.
71'

67'
D. Gray enters the game and replaces Ayoze Pérez.
Another Leicester substitution now, with Perez the man coming off and he has been replaced by Gray.
62'
Good chance! Redmond gets into the Leicester penalty area, before laying it back to Ings, who takes his time and passes to Armstrong who was races onto the ball on the edge of the penalty area. However, the strike is poor and flies high over the bar.
61'
We're past the hour mark in the game now and it remains 1-1 at the King Power Stadium and the game is finely poised, it could go either way.
58'
K. Ịheanachọ enters the game and replaces H. Barnes.
Here is the first Leicester substitution of the game, with Barnes coming off and he has been replaced by Iheanacho.
56'
There is movement on the Leicester bench, it looks like they are about to make their first change of the game in an attempt to go ahead once again.
54'
This game could go either way at the moment, with both teams getting numbers forward and stretching the opposition defences. It's hard to believe that Leicester won the reverse fixture 9-0 a few months ago!
49'
Bright start here by Southampton, they've started the second half on top and look the more threatening in front of goal. Leicester don't look comfortable at the back.
46'

36'
Into the wall! Ward-Prowse steps up to take the free-kick, but the Leicester wall does its job well and blocks the shot and then clears the danger.
34'
Free-kick to Southampton in a very good shooting position around 25 yards out after Redmond is brought down by Choudhury. It looks like Ward-Prowse is going to be the man to take it.
33'
Maddison with a free-kick just inside the Saints half, a good opportunity to get players forward from the back and create something. However, the ball in is too deep and McCarthy comfortably gathers in the air.
29'
It's end-to-end at the moment, with both defences having to work hard to keep the opposition out. However, Schmeichel has certainly been the busier of the two keepers so far.
25'
Not too far away! Ings meets an excellent Bertrand cross into the penalty area at the near post, but he can't quite turn his head enough to get it on target and the ball flies wide of the post.
23'
The game is very open now, with both teams trying to play the game at a quick pace and catch their opponents out on the counter.
19'
S. Armstrong has scored a goal for Southampton! Assist by S. Long.
GOOOAAALLL! The Leicester lead doesn't last long, Southampton have equalised, it's 1-1! The visitors have looked strong in attack so far today and thanks to a deflected Armstrong strike, they are back in the game. Long switches play by crossing to Armstrong down the right, who cuts inside and tries to curl the ball into the far corner of the net, but it takes a big deflection off Maddison, which fools Schmeichel and sends it into the other corner of the net.
Long looked to shape to shoot himself, but instead spotted the run of Armstrong down the right, who cuts inside to beat Chilwell and then fires the ball past Schmeichel.
18'
Decent effort! Barnes looked sharp so far for Leicester today and he tries his luck from long range there, but his strike is straight at McCarthy, who makes a comfortable save.
16'
S. Armstrong gets yellow.
The first yellow card of the game is shown to Armstrong after he brings Chilwell down from behind as the full-back sprinted past him.
15'
There was a quick VAR check on the Leicester goal, just to see if Vardy or Praet were offside at all in the build-up to the goal. They were both onside and the goal stands.
14'
D. Praet has scored a goal for Leicester City! Assist by J. Vardy.
GOOOAAALLL! Leicester take the lead after 14 minutes, it's 1-0! It comes from a quick counter-attack by the hosts, with Vardy released in-behind the Saints defence down the left wing and the striker looks up and plays a superb ball across goal to Praet, who taps the ball past McCarthy and into the back of the net from just a couple of yards out.
Perez spots the run of Vardy behind the Southampton defence and perfectly picks him out down the left wing. Excellent counter by the hosts.
13'
Ings does really well to chase down a clearance from Schmeichel, who took too long on the ball and the striker managed to block it. However, luckily for Leicester the ball goes behind for a goal-kick.
12'
This is better from Leicester, they are keeping the ball better and are starting to get likes of Barnes and Maddison on the ball and are playing it nicely around the Saints half of the pitch.
8'
Given the form that Ings has been in so far this season, it seems almost certain that he would convert that chance a moment ago. The striker has scored 13 Premier League goals.
5'
Southampton are frustrating Leicester so far, the visitors are keeping the ball well in the middle of the pitch and the Foxes are struggling to string a couple of passes together.
3'
Both teams are just trying to get their foot on the ball at the moment, neither side are keeping possession well and threatening to open the scoring in the early stages of the game.

We're under way!
Hello and welcome to our LIVE match commentary of the Premier League clash between Leicester City and Southampton at the King Power Stadium.
Leicester are second in the table, 13 points behind the leaders Liverpool at the top, having suffered a 4-0 defeat against the Reds on Boxing Day. However, the Foxes have bounced back with two league wins on the trot against West Ham and Newcastle, before victory in the FA Cup against Wigan. They drew 1-1 in the EFL Cup semi-final with Aston Villa on Wednesday.
Southampton are also on a good run of form, having won three and drawn one of their last four league games, to move up to 12th in the table. Whilst also booking their place in the FA Cup fourth round, after beating Huddersfield 2-0 last weekend. The last time these two sides met was back in October when Leicester thrashed the Saints 9-0, the largest away victory in Premier League history.
LEICESTER SUBS: Danny Ward, James Justin, Demarai Gray, Youri Tielemans, Marc Albrighton, Kelechi Iheanacho, Filip Benkovic.
SOUTHAMPTON SUBS: Angus Gunn, Maya Yoshida, Che Adams, Moussa Djenepo, Oriol Romeu, Sofiane Boufal, Michael Obafemi.
SOUTHAMPTON (4-4-2): Alex McCarthy; Cedric Soares, Jack Stephens, Jan Bednarek, Ryan Bertrand; Nathan Redmond, James Ward-Prowse, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Stuart Armstrong; Danny Ings, Shane Long.
The teams are out on the pitch and kick off is just a few minutes away, stay tuned for all of the match action!
LEICESTER (4-1-4-1): Kasper Schmeichel; Ricardo Pereira, Caglar Soyuncu, Jonny Evans, Ben Chilwell; Hamza Choudhury; Harvey Barnes, Dennis Praet, James Maddison, Ayoze Perez; Jamie Vardy.
Southampton are unlucky not to be leading here, with Leicester under a lot of pressure at times and not playing at their best so far today, with Schmeichel the far busier keeper.
That's all from us today folks, we hope you enjoyed the game!
Southampton are now eight points away from the relegation zone and remain 12th, whilst Leicester stay second in the table, but they could be overtaken by Manchester City tomorrow. Next up for Leicester is a trip to Burnley, while Southampton return to St Mary's to face Wolves.
