Leicester manager Claudio Ranieri is delivering on his promise to treat his players to pizzas after an early season incentive.

“To do well you have to have the right ingredients – players, team spirit, fans and you need a sprinkle of good luck”.
Our goal is the Premier League.
“It is the team spirit and they enjoy training”.
However, West Brom’s record at home this season has been very poor which doesn’t bode well considering Leicester have played superbly away from home.
One thing Ranieri’s team have not been able to do, however, is keep clean sheets.
Matty James continues to be missing obviously with his long term knee injury but Ranieri confirmed he’s making good progress still. Not many teams can buy him now. He likes what he’s doing at Leicester and the national team.
Having missed three of West Brom’s first five matches and been given a week off by the club during the global break, Berahino has been slowly trying to win over the Baggies’ faithful.
Ranieri said his players have the character to put their cup exit behind them.
Vardy leads the English Premier League scorers’ chart with 10 goals for Ranieri’s men, who are fifth in the table with 19 points.
Looking at the fixtures, West Brom (playing Leicester), Crystal Palace (playing Manchester United), Swansea (playing Arsenal) and obviously Liverpool (playing Chelsea), seem to have most chance of dropping to a position in the table that could be unsettling for fans.
“I think Leo Ulloa will be available”, Ranieri told reporters. I think they deserve this pizza.
