Chelsea's title march continued at the King Power Stadium this evening as they moved to within one win of the Premier League crown with a 3-1 victory over Leicester City.

The champions-elect were forced to come from behind following Marc Albrighton's goal on the stroke of half time, but Didier Drogba, John Terry and Ramires all scored in the second half to seal the points.

Here, Sports Mole looks at who stood out for both sides in a match with implications at the bottom of the table as well as the top.

LEICESTER

Goal

Kasper Schmeichel: Has been in fine form of late and was powerless to prevent at least two of the goals tonight. Perhaps could have pushed Cahill's header further away in the build-up to Chelsea's second, but it was a good stop in the first place. (6/10)

Defence

Marcin Wasilewski: Gave Chelsea very little joy in the first half despite being switched around to accommodate Huth's injury. Had more trouble in the second half when Chelsea found their form, but still a solid showing. (6/10)

Robert Huth: Forced off midway through the first half due to an injury sustained when going up for a corner. (6/10)

Wes Morgan: One of few who can match the physicality of Drogba, but struggled at times to shackle the quicker and trickier players in the Chelsea attack. (6/10)

Midfield

Marc Albrighton: Popped up with his first goal for the club to give them the lead right on the stroke of half time, finishing his chance with aplomb. Was a danger down the flank throughout the first half but faded a little after the break. (7/10)

Danny Drinkwater: A bright showing in the middle of the park as he held his own against the more illustrious names of Chelsea. Was involved in most of Leicester's good play during the first half but, as with the majority of his teammates, found it increasingly difficult in the second. (6/10)

Esteban Cambiasso: Combative as ever in midfield but again showed that he has style to go with his steel, in particular with one magnificent pass to send Ulloa through. (7/10)

Andy King: Made a bright start to the match but lasted less than 20 minutes before being forced off through injury. (6/10)

Paul Konchesky: Came close with an effort that sparked a scramble in the area during a good first-half display. Found it increasingly difficult up against an inspired Willian after the break, though, and was beaten for pace numerous times down his flank. (5/10)

Attack

Leonardo Ulloa: Squandered a good early chance with a poor touch and struggled to get into the game from that point on. Continued to work hard, but just couldn't make an impact. (5/10)

Jamie Vardy: A real livewire throughout and a constant menace to the Chelsea defence. Took Terry and Cahill where they didn't want to go and chased everything down all game. Picked up the assist for Leicester's goal with a good low cross into the middle. (8/10)

Substitutes

Matty James: Came on for the injured King after less than 20 minutes and did a good job maintaining Leicester's energy in the opening period, only to fade a little after the interval. (6/10)

Ritchie de Laet: A second enforced first-half sub for the hosts and made a number of good challenges, with his pace proving important up against Hazard. (6/10)

Riyad Mahrez: Replaced the energetic Vardy for the final 13 minutes but didn't have enough time to influence the game. (6/10)

CHELSEA

Goal

Petr Cech: In for Courtois and made a fine save to deny Konchesky in the first half before being left with no chance for Leicester's opener. (7/10)

Defence

Branislav Ivanovic: Provided the assist for the equaliser, bursting to the byline before picking the right pass to Drogba. Rarely found lacking at the back either. (7/10)

Gary Cahill: Dragged this way and that by a lively Vardy, but coped with the test relatively well. Involved in his side's second goal as he supplied the initial effort that led to Terry's rebound. (6/10)

John Terry: His lack of pace was exposed on one or two occasions, including in the build-up to Leicester's goal, but that is one of few weaknesses in his game. Another strong display on the whole, capped off with the goal that completed the turnaround. (7/10)

Cesar Azpilicueta: Crucially slipped inside the box to allow Albrighton to open the scoring, although very little blame can be attached to the Spaniard for that. As ever, could have offered a little more going forward, but was as solid as always defensively. (6/10)

Midfield

Nemanja Matic: Struggled on more than one occasion in the first half as Leicester won the midfield battle, but improved after the break. Not at his imperious best, though. (6/10)

Cesc Fabregas: Made a number of decent breaks forward and provided the assist for Ramires's screamer, but defensively he was overrun in the first half especially. (7/10)

Ramires: Gave the ball away too often and offered nothing special to the Chelsea attack until his stunning strike, which was enough to redeem a sub-standard performance. (6/10)

Willian: Began in a more central role but popped up on the right more often in the second half, when he began to have a greater influence. Had the beating of Konchesky and used his pace to great effect on the break time after time. Our man of the match. (8/10)

Eden Hazard: Was involved and always looks dangerous with his ducking and weaving style, but there was nothing special about his performance today. He was by no means the worst player on the pitch, but he fell short of his own high standards. (7/10)

Attack

Didier Drogba: Levelled the scores with a clinical finish at the start of the second half but then squandered an equally good chance moments later. Was a handful in the second half, but no longer the force he once was. (6/10)

Substitutes

Kurt Zouma: Chelsea's first sub, coming on in the 84th minute to further cement their lead. Did his job with minimum fuss. (6/10)

Juan Cuadrado: Arrived in the 88th minute and didn't have enough time to impact the game as Chelsea saw out the win. (6/10)

John Obi Mikel: Another late change from Mourinho as the visitors wound the clock down. (6/10)
