Half-Time Report: Leicester City, Stoke City goalless

Stoke made a positive start to the match, with Mark Hughes's men doing well to keep possession of the ball early on.

There were few chances of note during the opening exchanges, however, as both sides looked to establish control in midfield.

The first real opportunity of the game fell to David Nugent, who looped a header just wide of Asmir Begovic's post following a Leicester corner.

A promising counter-attack from the home side saw the ball find its way to Jamie Vardy, whose cross was poor. It dropped to Jeffrey Schlupp, but his ambitious drive smacked Marc Wilson and deflected away.

Leicester then spurned a good couple of chances to put themselves in the lead. First, Schlupp squared the ball for Anthony Knockaert, but his effort was tame and straight at Begovic.

Moments later, Nugent bent a shot towards the back post, with the ball dropping just wide of the goal.
