Leicester City will be missing a number of players for this crucial match. James Justin, Ryan Bertrand, and Youri Tielemans are all out with injuries and will be out for the foreseeable future. Kieran Dewsbury-Hall will be suspended after receiving a red card against Aston Villa.
Leicester will almost certainly call up Boubakary Soumare to replace Dewsbury-Hall in central midfield, where he will partner Wilfred Ndidi. The central defensive positions will be filled by Harry Souttar and Wout Faes, with Victor Kristiansen and Timothy Castagne serving as full-backs. Danny Ward could be replaced in goal by Daniel Iversen.
Meanwhile, James Maddison will play in the No.10 role behind Kelechi Iheanacho, who will lead the line, with Patson Daka as an alternative to the Nigerian striker. Brazilian Tete and Harvey Barnes will play in the wide attacking roles.
Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Iversen; Castagne, Souttar, Faes, Kristiansen; Ndidi, Soumare; Tete, Maddison, Iheanacho
