Leicester City travel to the Netherland to face current second placed Eredivisie team PSV Eindhoven in the decisive leg of the Foxes’ UEFA Europa Conference League tie. A place in the semi-finals is up for grabs. Here is our expected eleven.

Unfortunately for Foxes fans, this eleven is unlikely to be heaven, as Jamie Vardy remains a consistent injury for the King Power side. Brendan Rodgers will have to once again rely on the pace of Patson Daka and clinical finishing of Kelechi Iheanacho to lead the line.

The East Midland travellers draw with the Dutch super club 0-0 on aggregate after a rather impressive display in their previous UECL outing. The only caveat being a lack of decisive penetration and truly awful finishing.

Leicester could have gone into the second leg with two goals in the bag. Nevertheless, a straight fight benefits the opposition as they are prolific at home. Rodgers commented about how he is preparing the squad for the test in the pre-match press conference.

"“We’ll have a meeting and talk through the different scenarios. We have to play with calmness, but with emotion, and aggression”"
