Nigeria stars Victor Moses and Ahmed Musa will start for Chelsea and Leicester respectively in this early Premier League kick-off.
Victor Moses gets his second straight start for Chelsea and he will again play in a new role at right wing-back.
He has been praised for his man-of-the-match performance in a 2-0 win at Hull City before the international break.
A hamstring injury from that game will rule him out of Nigeria’s World Cup qualifier in Zambia thereafter.
Nigeria skipper Mikel Obi did not make the squad for Chelsea.
Ahmed Musa will also start for champions Leicester with Algeria teammates Riyad Mahrez and Islam Slimani on the bench for ‘The Foxes’.
It will be Ahmed Musa’s third start this season and he will play alongside Jamie Vardy in attack.
