Patson Daka - Scores in loss Daka scored and had a second shot on target in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Bournemouth.

Impact Daka's goal on Saturday makes three scores from his last four games. He has established himself as the Foxes regular starting striker. There is a good chance he continues to find the back of the net in Leicester's next game against Crystal Palace. Palace have only managed to keep one clean sheet in their last seven. He was subbed after 67 for Jamie Vardy. From eight appearances (three starts) he has scored three and created one assist.

Danny Ward - Concedes two in loss Ward managed two saves and conceded two goals in Saturday's 2-1 defeat by Bournemouth.

Impact Ward did not have much to do in Saturday's game which was largely played in the midfield. When called upon he did not produce any extraordinary saves that would have made a difference to the match outcome. He only faced four shots on target and conceded two of them, though he has not been well supported by his poorly performing defense. From nine appearances (all starts) he has conceded 24 goals, made 26 saves and only delivered one clean sheet.

Timothy Castagne - Comes off after 67 minutes Castagne sustained a "nasty blow" to his eye during Saturday's match according to manager Brendan Rodgers. Prior to coming off, he had logged three tackles and two clearances.

Impact Castagne was replaced in the 67th minute by Daniel Amartey, who figures to get additional run along the back line if the veteran needs to miss any time due to the injury. Any absence would certainly be felt as Foxes are already rather thin across the back. Castagne's logged an assist and a goal in eight appearances (seven starts).

Nampalys Mendy - Ruled out Saturday Mendy will be sidelined against Bournemouth on Saturday with a knee injury. Manager Brendan Rodgers told reporters, "It was just a clash of knees in training. The doctor and medica...

Impact Considering Mendy's only appearance for the club this season came in a Carabao Cup clash with Stockport on Aug. 23, his absence is unlikely to have any impact on the starting XI. Without a clear path to the pitch, Mendy will remain a relative non-factor in fantasy contests even once cleared to return.

Wilfred Ndidi - Facing multi-week absence Ndidi (hamstring) is expected to miss two-to-three weeks after manager Brendan Rodgers told reporters, "He came back from international duty with a hamstring strain. He recovered w...

Impact With the condensed schedule, Ndidi could miss up to four matches if he is on the later side of his 2-3 week timeline. With Ndidi out of action, Boubakary Soumare should be in the mix to take his place in the starting XI, especially considering he replaced Ndidi at halftime versus Nottingham Forest on Monday.

Impact Ndidi withdrew from the Nigerian national team with a hamstring issue and Rodgers was able to confirm that was the injury he aggravated Monday. Ndidi still has a chance to play during Saturday's trip to Bournemouth, though it would be Boubakary Soumare in his place if Ndidi is unable to feature in the starting XI.

Jamie Vardy - Logs assist in start Vardy assisted once to go with four shots (two on target) and one chance created in Monday's 4-0 win over Nottingham Forest.

Impact Vardy found an unmarked Harvey Barnes at the top of the penalty area in the 27th minute, and Barnes did the rest to give Leicester a 2-0 cushion. The veteran striker subbed off in the 62nd minute, giving way to Patson Daka for a fresh set of legs. Vardy's now up to three assists this season but is still looking for his first goal of the current EPL campaign.

Danny Ward - Blanks Forest in win Ward made three saves and two clearances while maintaining a clean sheet during Monday's 4-0 victory versus Nottingham Forest.

Impact As the score would indicate, Ward wasn't terribly troubled by an overmatched Forest squad in this match. That said, Foxes' supporters and fantasy managers alike will still be pleased with the elusive clean sheet result. Leicester have a rather manageable upcoming run of fixtures, so Ward may be useful in lineups if his back line continue figuring things out.
