Matty James is getting closer to a return but isnt ready yet. Ritchie De Laet is out while Danny Drinkwater and Jeff Schlupp are out with hamstring strains and Robert Huth is suspended. So here is what I would go with

Schmeichel

Simpson
Morgan
Wasilewski
Fuchs

Mahrez
Kante
King
Albrighton

Vardy
Ulloa

Subs- Schwarzer, Benalouane, Inler, Dyer, Kramaric, Okazaki, Panayoiutou
 
The extent to Drinkwater's injuries haven't been revealed and Jeff Schlupp has torn his hamstring so will be out for about 4-6 weeks.

I'd go with;

Schmeichel
Simpson Morgan Benalouane Fuchs
Inler
Kante King
Albrighton----------Mahrez
Vardy​

I think I'd go with AKCJ's selection on this one - with the option of bringing Leo on later on if things not going to plan ... not sure about Lukaku up against Wasl tbf ... good opportunity for Benny and Inler to prove their worth and stake a claim ...

Prouds is more likely and i'd actually prefer it atm, no reason to change the formation when we are in good form.

Agree with keeping the formation but would play Benaloaune instead of Wasa.
Just back from holiday and caught up on Swansea & Chelsea matches. Really excellent in both games and from what I've been told the atmosphere on Monday night was unbelievable. I'd thought I'd seen it all in my time following the Foxes but this season is something else.

I agree - hopefully he will take this opportunity as Huth is walking the like during matches.
 
Drinkwater has a hamstring strain. He hasnt pulled or teared it which is good news. He came off as a precaution

But he will miss Everton and maybe Liverpool and Man City
 
I started off being worried about losing both Huth and DD (and Jeff Schlupp at the same time) ... but you know what lads? ... just look who we have to come in ... we are light years away from where we have ever been in terms of strength in depth ...

Inler, Kingy, Benny, RDL and Wasl must all be champing at the bit to get a chance to prove themselves ... even in the best days of MON our options from the bench were rather limited ... Phil Gilchrist bless him ... never let us down but there is really no comparison to what our bench looks like these days

For this one I would go Inler instead of King & krameric instead of ulloa... These two are due a solid performance although I must admit it's a tad risky !
 
So excited, this will be my first Premier League game since we got promoted (believe it or not, I'm such a plastic fan!), so gutted that a couple of the guys will be injured or suspended. Personally, I'd go with the same system that's worked so well.

Schmeichel

Simpson
Benalouane
Morgan
Fuchs

Mahrez
King
Kante
Albrighton

Ulloa
Vardy

Was close to putting Inler in as I think he's a more obvious replacement for Danny than King is, and really want to see him in the side sooner rather than later, but King did enough against Chelsea to keep his place. However, I do worry this might leave us a little light in midfield, so would fully expect to see Inler in at some point.
 
who would have dreamt that when we where in league 1 we would be trying to guess whether the manager would have an injury and be having to pick between the Swiss national captain and Andy king and we have no strength in depth both midfielders who will more likely than not be at euro 2016. Cant believe Danny Drinkwater probably won't.

Am surprised Benalouane is not starting but CR knows best.
 
1-0 Mahrez penalty - been a pretty even game so far and can see it ending like this
 
I was just about to ask if anyone is bothering with leicester not606 any more. Normally there is about 10 posts in 10 seconds on here after we score & I´m always beaten to it.
Yes 1-0 with lots of time to go but nice to get our noses in front. Yet again I´m wishing for a clean sheet after going ahead.
