Chelsea danger meter rises

Restored to the starting line-up for Chelsea's Champions League win over FC Porto, striker Diego Costa will now be looking to start scoring on a regular basis.

The Spain forward has scored only three league goals so far this season.

"He is lacking in confidence, clearly," Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho said.

After winning the league by eight points in May, Chelsea could find itself in the relegation zone before playing at surprise leaders Leicester on Monday. Leicester are 17 points in front of 14th-place Chelsea.

Mourinho's side is only two points above the relegation zone after losing to Bournemouth, with its hopes of qualifying for the Champions League looking increasingly reliant on winning the competition.

Monday's game is Leicester manager Claudio Ranieri's first meeting with the club he managed between 2000 and 2004, when Mourinho first took charge.

"I'm sure at the end of the season they will be in the top four," Ranieri said. "I still think they will make the Champions League. For now it is bad luck but when they start to win they will arrive."
