Posted Saturday, January 05, 2019 by PA

Vashon Neufville could start at left-back in Butler’s absence after joining the club on loan from West Ham on Friday.

Loanees Tyreeq Bakinson and Antoine Semenyo are both available, the latter having recovered from a chest infection to rejoin the squad.
Captain Wes Morgan is fit for Leicester.
The defender has missed the last two games because of illness but has returned to training ahead of the clash.
Claude Puel will rotate his squad but Vicente Iborra is out having been granted time in Spain with his family with his future at the Foxes in doubt.
Daniel Amartey (broken ankle) and Matty James (Achilles) are out.
