Those teams: Jamie Vardy starts, which means Leicester field an unchanged side from the eleven who saw off Spurs last weekend.
Manchester United defender Eric Bailly is in for Aaron Wan-Bissaka, making only his sixth appearance for United this season.

Early team news …
Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy is expected to be fit, despite picking up a groin injury in his side’s win over Tottenham last weekend. Having recovered from the knee injury that kept him sidelined since March, Ricardo Pereira misses out again with a groin injury. Caglar Soyuncu is suffering from a similar injury and may also miss out.
Ole Gunnar Solskjær may have to plot without Scott McTominay and Aaron Wan Bissaka. McTominay picked up a groin injury during his bravura perfomance against Leeds last week, while Wan Bissaka missed United’s midweek League Cup win against Everton with some manner of unspecified knock.
