Some updated Leicester team news. Wilfred Ndidi has failed a fitness test on his knee, so is replaced in the starting XI by Hamza Choudhury as a precaution. Demarai Gray fills Choudhury’s place on the bench.
Just the one change to the Leicester CIty team beaten by Aston Villa in the League Cup midweek. Jamie Vardy is back, replacing Kelechi Iheanacho up front.
Chelsea by contrast make six changes to the XI named for the FA Cup tie at Hull last weekend. Marcos Alonso, Kurt Zouma, Fikayo Tomori, Ross Barkley, Mateo Kovacic and Michy Batshuayi make way for Reece James, Antonio Rudiger, Andreas Christensen, N’Golo Kante, Jorginho and Tammy Abraham. Incidentally, Frank Lampard has clearly lost patience with the increasingly hapless Kepa, who doesn’t regain his place having been benched for the cup.
