Team News of LEI vs BRG:
Leicester City:
- Brendan Rodgers hopes to have Jonny Evans available again after he missed the 4-1 win at Leeds on Monday with a slight injury.
- Caglar Soyuncu will return quicker than expected, having previously been ruled out until next year, but still won’t be ready until after the international break.
- Rodgers is still easing James Maddison back to full fitness and the midfielder will likely start against Braga after his cameo on Monday.
- Cengiz Under should also get a start after another impressing showing from the bench last time out.
- Kelechi Iheanacho will start if Rodgers looks to keep Jamie Vardy fresh for the weekend’s Premier League action.
- Luke Thomas should keep his place in the starting XI after impressing against Leeds. Rodgers would then also be able to give James Justin a rest.
Braga:
- Fransergio and David Carmo both missed Braga’s 1-0 win over Famalicao through suspension on Monday but are free to return here.
- Rui Fonte is Braga’s only injury concern heading into Thursday’s trip to England to face Leicester.
- After successfully fielding a 3-4-2-1 formation against Zorya last time out in the Europa League, Braga may feel inclined to stick with that shape here to mirror Leicester.
- Having long been linked with Manchester United, Nicolas Gaitan is now of Braga and will lead the line for the Portuguese outfit.
