Team News:

Leicester City

Leicester City haven’t had just the on-field misfortunes to deal with but their list of casualties as well, something that has arguably had a direct impact on their league campaign. Craig Shakespeare has had to deal with injuries to Danny Drinkwater, Robert Huth and new signings Vicente Iborra and Kelechi Iheanacho, all four being key players.

While Danny Drinkwater is now gone, Huth, Iborra and Iheanacho are all fit, meaning they could play for Leicester City later this week. The trio featured for the U-23s on Monday, with Vicente Iborra and Kelechi Iheanacho getting on the scoresheet as well.

The only question facing Shakespeare is: How does he fit the new signings in, and what about Robert Huth?

Huddersfield Town

Huddersfield Town are loving life in the Premier League despite their defeat to West Ham United on Monday, but even they aren’t short of injuries. The Terriers will be without as many as three players when they meet Leicester City on matchday five.
