Leicester to check on Chilwell and Maddison’s fitness to face Crystal Palace
Posted Saturday, February 23, 2019 by PA
Ben Chilwell and James Maddison will be assessed ahead of Leicester’s clash with Crystal Palace.
The pair are suffering from minor knocks and are doubts for the game at the King Power Stadium but Nampalys Mendy (groin) is fit.
Marc Albrighton is likely to miss the rest of the season following hamstring surgery while Daniel Amartey (ankle) is also out. Jamie Vardy could be recalled to the starting line-up after being on the bench against Tottenham last time out.
Crystal Palace defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been ruled out of Saturday’s Premier League trip to Leicester with a hamstring injury.
Fellow defender Martin Kelly also misses out due to a muscle strain sustained in Sunday’s FA Cup victory at Doncaster.
In their absence, Joel Ward is expected to start at right-back, while Scott Dann will vie for selection with James Tomkins and Mamadou Sakho in central defence.
