Where to Watch
Kick-off is at 3pm GMT. Radio commentary of the game will be available on BBC Radio 5 Live.
Overview
Tottenham are one win away from sealing a place in the Capital One Cup final as the north London club salvaged a narrow 1-0 win over Sheffield United in the first leg of the semifinal clash at White Hart Lane earlier this week.
Mauricio Pochettino is aware that his side can make it to Wembley if they avoid defeat in the second leg against the League One side, where they will either face Premier League rivals Liverpool or Chelsea in the final.
The Argentine manager will be keen to go further in the FA Cup as well and a win over the Foxes will help them keep their hope of winning the competition, alive.
Meanwhile, Leicester saw their four-match unbeaten run come to an end after suffering a 1-0 defeat at King Power Stadium against Stoke City. Nigel Pearson is aware that if his side fails to get back to winning ways, their chances of staying in top flight English football will become very slim.
What Managers Say
Mauricio Pochettino: "We played a very slow tempo [against Sheffield United]. When every player had the ball, they took three, four and five touches and after they pass the ball. This was the main difficulty in creating chances."
Nigel Pearson: "Unfortunately for us, when we went a goal behind, we didn't really create too many dangerous situations. That's probably the most disappointing thing for us because our results recently have been better and our performances have been pretty good but we didn't put them under enough pressure towards the end of the game."
