T. Huddlestone is unfortunate, scores an own goal!
IT'S 3-1! Huddlestone puts the ball into the back of his own net! Leicester have surely sealed all three points now. Albrighton whipped the corner in and Huddlestone tried to clear the ball away, but he puts the ball past Jakupovic under pressure from Huth!

86'
Hull are throwing everything at Leicester at the moment, trying to go forward at every opportunity but the Foxes are doing well defensively, not allowing them any clear chances at goal.

GOOD SAVE! Schmeichel denies Niasse at his near post. The Hull striker did well to work himself some space and take a shot at goal, but the Foxes keeper gets down well to his right to make the save. The resulting corner comes to nothing.

I. Slimani enters the game and replaces R. Mahrez.
The man who looks to have scored the winning goal is off and on in his place is Islam Slimani.

75'
Drinkwater slides a great ball in behind the Hull defence for Vardy to run on to, but Ranocchia gets there ahead of Vardy and makes an excellent sliding tackle to deny the England striker the chance to shot at goal.
74'
Excellent play by Maguire to bring the ball out of defensive and create an attack, he gets as far as the edge of the box before playing the ball to Grosicki down the left, however the cross is a poor one and Leicester are able to clear the danger.
72'
Despite enjoying the vast majority of possession at the moment, Hull are struggling to carve out any real chances but they are forcing Leicester to sit deeper and deeper and the hosts are starting to invite pressure on themselves.
70'
D. Gray enters the game and replaces S. Okazaki.
Leicester respond by making a substitution of their own with Shinji Okazaki the man coming off, to be replaced by Demarai Gray.

66'
Looks like Hull might be about to make their first substitution of the game, they need to change something if they are to get back into this game.
64'
Riyad Mahrez has now scored in four of his five appearances against Hull City in all competitions, though three were scored away from home, so todays goal is his first against the Tigers at the King Power Stadium.
62'
A huge blow to Hull who have performed well so far in the second half, having a few good chances. Grosicki has just forced Schmeichel into making a good save from a fierce free-kick. The visitors are still in this game.
59'
R. Mahrez has scored a goal for Leicester City! Assist by R. Huth.
GOOOAAALLL! MAHREZ! The winger has been lively all game and he beats Robertson and Maguire with his trickery, switches the ball back onto his right and fires a low shot at goal which beats Jakupovic at his near post. Perhaps the Hull keeper should’ve done better with that attempt, he doesn’t look pleased with conceding that goal.
57'
Simpson finds plenty of time and space so he tries his luck from long-range, his low shot is saved by Jakupovic but the Hull keeper almost spills the ball into the net!
55'
CHANCE HULL! Clucas does brilliantly to beat Ndidi after getting to the byline, he then cuts back onto his favoured left-foot and shoots at goal, but his shot lacks any real power and Leicester are able to clear. Perhaps Clucas should've played the ball to Niasse who was making a late run into the box.
54'
Hull are the better team at the moment, they have improved a lot from how they finished the first half. The two best chances failing to Maguire, plus they have plenty of pace going forward which is causing the Leicester defence problems.
53'
This is the fourth Premier League meeting between the teams, with both sides claiming one victory each in the three previous games. With Hull beating the reigning Premier League champions on the opening day of this season, back in August.

45'
There will be a minimum of one minute added time played here.
44'
Grosicki onces again breaks on the counter down the left for Hull, pulls the ball back for Robertson but his ball into the box is too heavy and misses all of his teammates in the box. Both teams are just lacking the final ball at the moment.
41'
This will be nervous viewing for Hull supporters at the moment as their side struggle to clear the lines. The Tigers need to stay tight until half-time at least. Despite their pressure Leicester need to be aware of the counter-attacking threats that Hull can cause them. Grosicki wins a corner after a long ball downfield. Leicester clear the danger.
39'
Mahrez looks very keen to impress today, he has been influential down both wings so far for Leicester. The winger cut inside from the right and whipped a cross into the box which Robertson had to put behind his own goal for a corner. Hull deal with the corner, but Leicester keep on coming.
37'
Mahrez tries to feed Simpson into the box but Grosicki makes sure he does he defensive duties and gets back to put the ball out for a throw-in. Good defending by Hull from the throw-in sees them win a goal-kick. Can either side create a goal-scoring opportunity before the half-time whistle and put themselves in the driving seat?
35'
Hull really are struggling to keep possession of the ball now, they are unable to string more than three or four passes together at the moment which is playing straight into Leicester's hands.
33'
Vardy and Albrighton almost link up again! Vardy gets away from Maguire and lofts a cross across the face of the goal, aiming for Albrighton but the winger is not quick enough and the chance goes amiss. Vardy has been excellent so far here for Leicester. Looking dangerous every time he picks up the ball.
32'
The home fans are now in fine voice with the scores now level. The goal has given Leicester a huge lift!
30'
Hull have struggled to keep the ball since they took the lead early on, now with Leicester's equaliser it may force them to start playing their football again. The likes of Huddlestone and Clucas are unable to get a real grip on the game for the Tigers.
27'
C. Fuchs has scored a goal for Leicester City! Assist by J. Vardy.
Very good link-up play between Fuchs and Vardy, they were certainly on the same wavelength then! Vardy turning provider for his teammate to score the equalising goal.
GOOOAAALLL! LEICESTER EQUALISE! Christian Fuchs get the ball deep in the Hull half, he plays it to Vardy who sprints down the wing and then pulls a perfect ball back to Fuchs who made a superb run. The left-back then slots the ball into the back of the net with ease, giving Eldin Jakupovic no chance to save it.
26'
Lazar Markovic plays a sloppy ball in midfield, aiming for Huddlestone but it is nowhere near his skipper and Leicester can try and mount a counter-attack.
24'
Grosicki breaks forward down the left once again, however it is good defending from Simpson who forces him back to Robertson. Leicester then put good pressure on the Hull backline and force a throw-in. Both sides struggling to create any goal-scoring chances at the moment though.
22'
Hull look full of confidence at the moment, it is remarkable how different they are performing under new boss Marco Silva since he took over in October. Tigers fans remain positive that they can avoid the drop to the Championship.
19'
Andy Robertson and Grosicki are linking up well down the left, causing Danny Simpson plenty of problems. Mahrez is doing well as well down that flank but is struggling to get back and help his right-back out which is leaving Simpson open.
17'
Leicester try to retaliate straight away but nothing comes of their attack. Hull are getting players back in numbers and so far frustrating their opponents. That Hull goal has certainly silenced the home supporters.
14'
S. Clucas has scored a goal for Hull City!
STAT: Leicester are unbeaten in four home games against Hull since March 2008. Plus there have been six red cards in the last eight league meetings - three for each side.
GOOOAAALLL! HULL TAKE THE LEAD! Sam Clucas has put the Tigers one-nil here at the King Power Stadium with a simple tap-in after an excellent piece of play by Kamil Grosicki. Grosicki breaks forward quickly leading a Hull counter-attack, he gets to the byline and pulls the ball back for Clucas, who turns the ball home from close range.
12'
Very even game at the moment, both teams are looking full of confidence despite their league positions. Leicester look the more dangerous side going forward at the moment with those two chances early on still the best of the game.
10'
Robert Huth rises highest and clears the ball out for a corner, which comes to nothing. Both sides look threatening here so far, an early goal for either side would be massive.
9'
Free-kick to Hull in a decent position. On the right wing, around 10 yards from the edge of the box with Kamil Grosicki to whip it in to the box...

That good period of play for the Foxes has certainly given the home supporters a good lift and they are doing their best to create a good atmosphere inside the King Power Stadium, in what is a huge game for them.

HE SHOULD'VE SCORED! Marc Albrighton some how manages to miss from a yard out, it was excellent defending from Harry Maguire to put the winger under pressure and force him to put his effort wide. Vardy broke free down the left and played a ball between the goalkeeper and defenders, straight to Albrighton. Two very good chances for Leicester early on!

CHANCE! Wes Morgan with a fantastic opportunity to open the scoring! Riyad Mahrez whipped in a free-kick which was won by Jamie Vardy. The Foxes skipper was completly unmarked in the box and had a free header, but he put it wide!

Hello and welcome to our LIVE match commentary of the Premier League clash between Leicester City and Hull City at the King Power Stadium.
Hull have been in the relegation zone since mid-October but have improved a lot under their new boss Marco Silva, who has picked up eight points in his six league games in charge. Including a point at Old Trafford and a victory over Liverpool. However, on the road they have not won any of their last 12 Premier League away games, with their only win on the road this season was a 2-0 win at Swansea in August.
Leicester caretaker boss Craig Shakespeare is looking to make it back-to-back wins when the Tigers visit today. The Foxes moved out of the relegation zone on Monday night with an impressive 3-1 victory over Liverpool. However, Leicester have won just three of their 13 Premier League games against teams in the bottom half of the table. But both teams will be eager to pick up three points here today.
Team news: Strikers Islam Slimani and Leonardo Ulloa are fit again for Leicester after being included in the side against Liverpool on Monday night. Meanwhile for Hull, Harry Maguire is expected to shake off a knee injury in time, after picking up a knock against Burnley. Sam Clucas is also available after serving a one-game ban.
Head-to-head: Hull City beat Leicester 2-1 on the opening day of the season and could become the first promoted side to do the double over the reigning top-flight champions, since Norwich at the expense of Liverpool in 1982-83.
The teams news is in, here is how the two sides line-up today at the King Power Stadium...
Leicester name the same side that beat Liverpool on Monday night, whilst Hull make three changes with Clucas, Markovic and Niasse coming in for Maloney, Elabdellaoui and Mbokani.

HALF-TIME: LEICESTER 1-1 HULL
Hull took the lead through Sam Clucas after a good counter-attack. However Leicester, inspired by the impressive Jamie Vardy, equalised through Christian Fuchs not long after. It's honours even at the break, but can either side push on to grab all three points in the second-half?
FULL-TIME: LEICESTER 3-1 HULL
It's a second successive 3-1 win for Leicester, who move five points clear of the relegation places. The Foxes gained a vital victory over their relegation rivals, the hosts went behind early on, but they hit back through Fuchs, then Mahrez and an own goal seal a huge win
