Brendan Rodgers' side fell at this hurdle last season, losing 4-1 to Nottingham Forest. Walsall are playing in the fourth round for only the second time in 17 seasons, thanks to their dramatic late victory in an all-League Two tie against Stockport County; they've not reached the fifth round since 2003. This is the first meeting between the teams since February 2009, when Leicester ran out 4-1 winners en route to promotion from League One – although Walsall did win the only previous FA Cup tie, 1-0 at this same stage way back in 1978. Kick-off is at 12:30pm GMT.
FormWalsall come into this clash among the most in-form teams in the top four divisions: the Saddlers have lost just one of their last 13 outings in all competitions, winning nine. They currently sit four points outside the League Two play-offs with two games in hand and drew 1-1 away to Tranmere last time out. Leicester, meanwhile, have hit a real slump since the World Cup. The Foxes have won just two of their eight games in league and cup since the resumption of the club season – both against lower-league opposition. They conceded a late equaliser to draw 2-2 at home to Brighton last time out, although they did at least snap a run of four straight league defeats.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that's a result. There are plenty of good-value options out there.

The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo! ) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
