Emma Hayes is looking for Chelsea to go top of the table

"Sam Kerr has been Chelsea's most prolific striker this season and Leicester are struggling to keep clean sheets.

Back Sam Kerr 2+ goals & Chelsea to beat Leicester to nil @ 4.77/2

After a midweek Chelsea postponement, our props column is sticking with Sam Kerr to send the Blues top of the WSL with a win over Leicester...

Right, let's try this one again, and take a look at Chelsea's second chance to go to the top of the Women's Super League in a week.

We fancied them to beat Spurs before their game was called off due to a Covid outbreak, and now Chelsea face an easier task against struggling Leicester.

We talked about levels within the women's game, and the top four here are a cut above the rest by an enormous margin - with an even greater distance between them and the bottom sides.

Leicester being 30/1 for a home win here tells its own story, and it should be a fill your boots job for Emma Hayes' side against a team that's conceded an average of two goals a game this season.

With Arsenal's north London derby game also called off due to Covid, Chelsea can go top for the first time this season with a fully expected victory.

Chelsea's stars have had a bit of extra rest ahead of this game and there's no reason not to expect the same result we backed in the postponed Spurs game - namely a comfortable Chelsea victory to nil.

Leicester have only scored 14 in 17 league games and conceded the second-most goals in the league, so Australian striker Sam Kerr should still be able to bang in a few goals.

She's a shorter price than she was against Spurs to score twice, but more likely to come in given Leicester's defensive record.

A comprehensive Chelsea win sparked by Kerr still seems the order of the day.
