Fulham vs. Leicester: What to expect from Wednesday’s matchup

Predicted Foxes line-up

Taking into account the growing injury list Leicester’s squad depth will be tested again.

Captain Schmeichel should remain ever present between the posts, with a new look back four of Ricardo Pereira, Caglar Soyuncu, Jonny Evans and James Justin likely to be utilised. The rest of the team may not see many changes with Youri Tielemans and Papy Mendy sitting in front of the defence and Marc Albrighton, James Maddison and Harvey Barnes are the most likely to provide service for make shift striker Ayoze Perez.

Cengiz Under has been pushing for a Premier League start and should feature even if it be from the bench, Kelechi Iheanacho will be wondering what he has to do to get his opportunity up top in Vardy’s absence.

Fulham have been a much better side following their win against Leicester previously which seemed to kick start they London club’s season, they tend to hang around in games and have been unlucky not to to take points from teams sitting higher up the table than themselves on a few occasions. Leicester will need to put out a strong performance but certainly have the quality to do so even with some rotation required. I predict a 2-1 victory for the Foxes and a reversal of Novembers result despite the absence of some key players. All stats used in this article are taken from Fantasy Football Scout.
