Leicester City team news
With the likes of Ricardo Pereira, James Justin, Ryan Bertrand and Jannik Vestergaard sidelined with injuries, Harvey Barnes and Jonny Evans would remain doubts after missing the City loss due to a hamstring problem and illess, respectively.
Smith may revert to a four-man backline here, meaning one of Caglar Soyuncu or Harry Souttar will start on the bench, handing Jamie Vardy a go in attack ahead of Kelechi Iheanacho and Patson Daka.
