Team News: Leicester City make five changes for Southampton clash

Leicester City manager Claude Puel has made five changes from the side which lost to Burnley for this evening's Premier League meeting with Southampton.

Ben Hamer replaces the injured Kasper Schmeichel between the sticks, while Wilfred Ndidi returns to the midfield following a suspension.

Up front, there is a fourth league start for Kelechi Iheanacho, who replaces the injured Shinji Okazaki.

Aleksandar Dragovic comes into the Foxes' defence in place of Wes Morgan, and the hosts have also welcomed back Marc Albrighton on the wing.

Southampton, meanwhile, have stuck with the same starting XI which narrowly lost to Chelsea last time out, but Steve Davis is back among their substitutes following a spell on the sidelines.

Leicester City: Hamer; Chilwell, Maguire, Dragovic; Gray, Albrighton, Silva Ndidi; Iheanacho, Vardy, Mahrez Subs: Simpson, Morgan, Jakupovic, Fuchs, Barnes, Diabate, Choudhury

Southampton: McCarthy; Bednarek Yoshida, Soares; Hoedt, Romeu, Bertrand, Hojbjerg; Tadic, Ward-Prowse; Long Subs: Davis, Austin, Gabbiadini, Redmond, Pied, Sims, Forster
