Midfielder Joe Willock's season is over because of a hamstring injury, while Joelinton will also face a late fitness test because of a knock which is not currently thought to be serious enough to impact his involvement here.
Sean Longstaff and Jacob Murphy both remain out - the former's absence proving particularly problematic in a light midfield.

Leicester have to go for this one. It's a tough ask, but in their current predicament, anything less than three points could prove fatal.

There may be a lot of emotion, but that won't cut it for Leicester.
