Who's in contention to play?

Jonny Evans

Northern Ireland international Jonny Evans is ruled out of the trip to Leeds after missing Thursday's UEFA Europa League tie.

Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers said: "Timothy [Castagne] has tweaked his hamstring, hence the reason he didn’t travel (to AEK Athens), so he’ll probably be out until after the international break, which is a shame. It’s not too bad, but it’ll keep him out for this next period.

"Jonny [Evans] landed really awkwardly against Arsenal and he obviously played on and the back stiffened up a little bit. We wanted to give him every chance to play against AEK and he trained in the warm-up the night before, but he had to go in as he was suffering with his back."

Riyad Mahrez

Former Foxes winger Riyad Mahrez was on the scoresheet when City last faced Leeds United.

The two sides last faced each other on 24 October 2017 when Leicester were 3-1 victors in a Carabao Cup Round of 16 tie at King Power Stadium. The visitors took the lead through Pablo Hernández before goals from Kelechi Iheanacho, Islam Slimani and Riyad Mahrez sealed the Foxes' progression into the quarter finals.

The last league meeting at Elland Road was a Championship fixture back in January 2014. City came away from Yorskhire with all three points thanks to David Nugent's dramatic late strike, securing an 18th win of the season as Leicester edged towards a Premier League return.
