Team News: Riyad Mahrez on bench for Leicester City at Norwich City

Key Leicester City midfielder Riyad Mahrez is only named as a substitute for this afternoon's Premier League trip to Norwich City.

Key Leicester City midfielder Riyad Mahrez has been named only as a substitute for this afternoon's Premier League trip to Norwich City.

The Algerian, who has scored five goals in seven league games so far this season, is replaced in Claudio Ranieri's starting XI by left-back Christian Fuchs, with Jeffrey Schlupp expected to move up into a wide midfield position.

The only other change to the Foxes' lineup is at the other full-back position, where Danny Simpson comes in for Richie de Laet, who drops to the bench.

Shinji Okazaki continues to partner top scorer Jamie Vardy in attack.

For the hosts, Matt Jarvis returns to the side after he was ineligible in the draw with his parent club West Ham United last weekend, while Robbie Brady moves back to left-back and Martin Olsson drops to the bench.

Norwich City: Ruddy; Whittaker, Martin, Bassong, Brady; Howson, Dorrans, Tettey, Jarvis; Hoolahan; Jerome.
Subs: Rudd, Mbokani, Lafferty, Redmond, Olsson, R Bennett, O'Neil

Leicester City: Schmeichel; Simpson, Huth, Morgan, Fuchs; Albrighton, Kante, Drinkwater, Schlupp; Okazaki, Vardy
Subs: Schwarzer, De Laet, King, Ulloa, Mahrez, Beanlouane, Inler
