Today is Christmas Eve, Eve. It is a thing, I just looked it up. So when you get home, ask where your December 23rd presents are with glee. Then subsequently look as disappointed as a typical Foxes fan on a Saturday afternoon when your family says 'what are you on about?!'.
All jokes aside, it is almost Xmas indeed; and Leicester City supporters could do with one special present on Boxing day when we meet Watford for the latest English Football League Championship fixture. Although this time of year does not historically bring any good cheer to Leicestershire, results-wise, as you can probably imagine with all the current problems at King Power Stadium.
I'm not going to run you through all those issues, being as Christmas was oddly cancelled on Filbert Way by The King Power International Group boss and our chairman, Aiyawatt (Khun Top) Srivaddhanaprabha. Suffice to say, all is not well at LCFC right now.
But Marti Cifuentes and his men will continue to try to bring some positivity to the City faithful - we deserve it! The Catalonian has actually spoken to the media ahead of the Hornets clash on Friday afternoon. This included the former Queens Park Rangers man offering fitness details on his squad. So before that meeting of very modestly-positioned tier two clubs, let's learn what the under pressure Cifuentes had to say.
Mixed injury news for Leicester City as centre backs Caleb Okoli and Jannik Vestergaard assessed
I don't know how hard they are training the defence, what they are feeding them at Seagrave, or if there is something in their water, but there have been many injuries in that department this season. You can add Vestergaard to that list now.

Thankfully the information on Okoli is more promising. He'll be needed at the back if the Dane is out.
