37-year-old Leicester City striker says Chelsea are 'nothing different' ahead of visit to Stamford Bridge

Jamie Vardy says Leicester City are heading to Stamford Bridge this weekend to win and not just add to the numbers ahead of their FA Cup quarter-final game against Chelsea. The Foxes are top of the Championship table, a position they have held since September last year. 

But they have had challenges in the last few games, winning one of their three and seeing their healthy lead at the top of the table cut down to just three by the marauding Leeds United. But they did beat another Premier League side, Bournemouth to reach the last eight of the Cup. 

And Vardy who has scored four times in 21 meetings against Chelsea says, that Mauricio Pochettino's side are beatable even in their own backyard. He told BBC Radio Leicester: "We go into every game wanting to win so we'll make sure we're recovered and we'll be back on the training field looking at how Chelsea play and how we can hurt them.

“You just have to look at if it’s another league game. There’s nothing different. They’ve had their troubles, obviously have got brilliant players and on their day, they’re an unbelievable team."

Chelsea on a mission to return to Wembley

Securing a spot in Europe is top of the agenda at Chelsea and keeping their FA Cup dream alive could be a double reward. They reached the final of the League Cup only to narrowly lose to Liverpool so the FA Cup is the only realistic chance of winning a silverware this season.

The League form has been inconsistent but they managed a massive 3-2 win over Newcastle on Monday night to breathe life into their campaign and keep alive the hopes of finishing in a European spot in case they do not go all the way in the Cup.
