Marc Albrighton picks up a failed headed clearance by Rami after a Mahrez cross and he neatly tucks it into Rico's bottom corner with his left.

Min 54 A collision between Vardy and Pareja has the pair squaring up to each other. No free but Vardy is unhappy that he was cut off by the defender and Pareja is unhappy with the kick out by Vardy.

Min 53 An absolutely cracking effort by Escudero. Looked like it was going 10 yards over the bar but it dipped perfectly before hitting the underside of Schmeichel's crossbar.

So close to an equaliser on the night. It was to Ben Yedder, who blazes over. Min 51 This is turning into an end-to-end game now. Nasri the latest to try after Okazaki is dispossessed at the edge of Sevilla's penalty area.

Min 49 Vardy collides with Mariano in the air but he is up and about again after a slight break. Seems he was buying his side a little breather to take the sting out of the visitors' good start to the second half.

Min 48 More intent from Sevilla in the second half as Vitolo gets a cross in but huth clears for a corner. Leicester City Sevilla: first half summary.

Leicester City are back to their very best under Craig Shakespeare and it also helps that Sevilla are currently in the middle of their most difficult spell of the season.

Sevilla are lacking that very creativity but it also feels like they have enough to get one, at the very least and I would expect Jorge Sampaoli to make a change for the second 45 in an effort to force the issue.

Leicester City Sevilla: team news. Min 45 Into the final stages of the first half and Leicester have a free-kick in a similar position to the one that landed them the first goal!

They play it short and Drinkwate tires a curler and it's blocked. Min 43 Mercado gets a shot across the box after some pressure from Leicester.

Ben Yedder has to try and flick it with his heel towards the goal but it is blocked and put out for a corner. Schmeichel's kick-out after claiming the corner is perfect as Vardy takes on Escudero and wins.

He tries to chip it towards Okazaki and Sevilla clear. It lands to Vardy again who has a shot that goes well wide. Min 41 Fuchs makes his way into the penalty area, is nearly pulled down, before getting a tame shot away.

This is a different Leicester City team to that one that played in Andalusia a few weeks ago. Min 38 Vardy lays it off to Drinkwater outside the box and he has a shot but it rolls into Rico's gloves.

Min 37 Mahrez has a run at Escudero but the left-back gets a tackle in and Sevilla break. Nasri ends up with it out on the left but his low attempted cross is blocked and ends up in Schmeichel's hands.

Seemed his mind, or body was working too fast for the other. He hangs his head and knows it was a wasted chance.

Min 32 Mercado has a cross that turns into a shot but Schmeichel turns it over the crossbar for a corner. Sevilla coming to life now. No massive chances yet.

Min 30 Drinkwater's clearance is headed back into the danger zone before a moment of hesitation that leads to Ben Yedder on the ball but his low shot is wide of Shmeichel's goal.

Min 29 Vitoli switch the play deep, and finds Mercado on the other side of the penalty area. He lays it off to Iborra, who has a shot that is half-blocked for a corner.

Min 27 GOAL! Morgan bundles the ball over the line at the back post after a really enticing cross from the free by Mahrez. The King Power is abuzz.

Min 26 Vardy runs himself into trouble but as he tries to turn, Iborra dives in and Vardy makes sure he makes contact with his leg. Free to Leicester in a dangerous position as Mahrez sizes up his options.

Min 25 Nasri caught in possession as Sevilla work hard to win it back. Leicester really up for this one and chasing down every Sevilla player whenever they get the ball at their feet.

Sevilla a little flat. Min 23 Simpson gets a foot to the ball ahead of N'Zonzi and the Sevilla player seemed to clip him as he passed with his knee.

Referee says not though. Min 21 Nasri finds Ben Yedder, who does well to kep possession and lay it off to Sarabia but his shot drags and rolls well wide.

Good combination by the visitors who have shown how dangerous they can be once or twice so far despite soaking up plenty of pressure.

Min 20 Rami's collides with Okazaki and puts it out for a throw. The Japanese attacker gets up wondering what day it is.

Min 18 Yellow card for Samir Nasri as he drove Ndidi a kick! He is really lucky he didn't see red as he blatantly took a swipe at the midfielder's legs.

Min 17 Rami with a central defender's free-kick there as it floats over the bar. Looked like more of a pass to someone behind the goal than an effort to score.

Min 16 Ndidi chasing Vitolo but as the Spanish attacker gets across the Leicester player, he gets a slight nudge and falls over. Free to Sevilla in a dangerous position as Kasper Schmeichel eyes it up and sorts out his wall.

Min 14 Sevilla eventually get the ball down and throw a few passes together. Okazaki fouls Vitolo as they slow it down even further to their pace.

They have to take the sting out of this one because Leicester are playing like their old selves. Min 13 Vardy with a tackle that was sure to get the fans off their feet as he dives about five yards in the air to block a clearance.

Min 11 Corner by Albrighton very nearly met by Morgan as he rises to meet it but it's cleared by Sevilla. The second half continued in the same manner as the previous 45 minutes, with Schmeichel again on hand to deny Correa after he had deflected Mariano's effort on goal, before Sergio Rico was forced into his first save at the other end when Wilfried Ndidi's yard volley sailed into his arms.

The visitors survived another scare just moments later, as Samir Nasri sent a sumptuous disguised pass beyond Leicester's offside trap only for Vitolo to stump the foot of the post and see the ball trickle along the goal line.

Sarabia then dragged an effort wide shortly afterwards, but Leicester finally woke up just shy of the hour mark after Ranieri sent on Demarai Gray for the ineffective Ahmed Musa and the substitute's endeavour enabled Drinkwater to strike wide courtesy of a deflection.

Sevilla, though, doubled their advantage when Morgan and Huth were caught out by a routine ball over the top and former Manchester City forward Stevan Jovetic squared to Correa, who finished with aplomb via the underside of the crossbar.

Although Leicester had been outplayed, they grabbed a route back into the tie through their first meaningful attack, as Gray found Drinkwater down the left-hand side and the midfielder played a perfectly-weighted pass across goal for Vardy to finish.

That goal only served to awake Sevilla, who went on the assault to find a third, but once again Schmeichel was on hand to keep the hosts at bay when Vitolo met Sarabia's deflected cross at the back post, before Jovetic's shot went wide.

The woodwork was struck again in the dying minutes as centre-back Rami crashed a header against the bar, but the Foxes held on to ensure they need a win in the return leg to advance to the last eight.

Search Sky Sports. Shakespeare named an unchanged side for the third successive game, keeping faith with the players - with the exception of the departed N'Golo Kante - who got Leicester into Europe's elite-club competition by winning the Premier League.

That historic title-winning season, and the ensuing European campaign was almost wasted on four minutes as a lapse in concentration presented Pablo Sarabia with the first opening.

Just as he had in the first leg though, Schmeichel was up to the task, preventing the winger from adding to his first-leg strike. From that point on Leicester settled, restricting Sevilla until the deadlock on 27 minutes, Morgan hooking his leg around Gabriel Mercado to turn Riyad Mahrez's free-kick home.

Wissam Ben Yedder spurned a decent chance to draw the visitors level immediately but he dragged a shot wide, before Robert Huth blocked his nonchalant near-post flick two minutes before the interval.

Sevilla, supplemented by substitutes Mariano and Stevan Jovetic at half-time, started the second period strongly and were inches away from scoring a vital away goal.

Sergio Escudero's speculative year drive on 53 minutes almost provided that but, with the goalkeeper beaten, it cannoned off the underside bar.

And no sooner had the frame of the Leicester goal stopped shaking the Foxes had gone up the other end and doubled their lead.
