London - Leicester City midfielder Matty James insists the rock-bottom Foxes still have cause for hope in their survival bid.
James believes Pearson's team can take heart from results going their way over the weekend - one in which they took an enforced break due to scheduled opponents Chelsea's participation in the League Cup final against Tottenham Hotspur.
They remain just four points adrift of safety and could also benefit from being fresher than their opponents, who have lost to Barcelona and Liverpool since the Foxes drew at Everton a week ago last Sunday.
