Team News: Leicester City unchanged against Watford

Leicester City have opted for an unchanged lineup as they welcome fellow 40-pointers Watford this afternoon.

Captain Wes Morgan remains absent with a hamstring injury, leaving Craig Shakespeare to name the same XI that secured a 1-0 win against West Bromwich Albion last weekend.

On the bench, Ahmed Musa is given a berth as Leonardo Ulloa drops off.

Watford, meanwhile, make two changes from their 1-0 defeat at the hands of Liverpool on Monday.

Injured defender Miguel Britos, who was substituted at Vicarage Road, is absent from the squad and replaced by Christian Kabasele, while captain Troy Deeney finds himself on the bench as Stefano Okaka is handed a start.

Jose Holebas, who missed out against the Reds, is absent once more.

Leicester City: Schmeichel; Simpson, Benalouane, Huth, Fuchs; Mahrez, Ndidi, Drinkwater, Albrighton; Okazaki, Vardy Subs: Chilwell, Musa, King, Amartey, Slimani, Zieler, Gray

Watford: Gomes; Mariappa, Prodl, Kabasele; Amrabat, Doucoure, Cleverley, Capoue, Janmaat; Niang, Okaka Subs: Pantilimon, Deeney, Success, Behrami, Zúñiga, Eleftheriou, Pereira
