Ricardo Pereira - Unavailable against Leeds Pereira was omitted from Leicester's game-day squad list to face Leeds United Saturday.
Impact Pereira is nursing a thigh injury and will miss at least one game. It appears that Marc Albrighton is adapting to the role in this one.

James Maddison - Will miss Leeds game Maddison (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's match versus Leeds United.
Impact Maddison was questionable coming into the game and will be forced to miss this one due to a hamstring injury. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is getting the nod in the midfield.

Ricardo Pereira - Questionable versus Leeds Pereira (hamstring) is in doubt ahead of Saturday's matchup with Leeds United. Manager Brendan Rodgers told reporters, "We've got a couple of issues with Ricardo and James Maddison...
Impact Pereira started each of the Foxes' previous three contests after returning from a leg injury. In those outings, the right-back registered one goal on six shots (two on target), six crosses (zero accurate) and 12 tackles (six won). Once cleared to play, Pereira should be in line to reclaim his place in the starting XI and should provide solid top-half fantasy value.

Impact Maddison managed to score a goal on one shot in his substitute appearances versus Burnley but is now in danger of being sidelined Saturday. If the midfielder does miss out versus Leeds, both Marc Albrighton and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall could be in line for the corner-taking duties.

Ricardo Pereira - Subbed off with hamstring discomfort Pereira took two shots (one on target) and created a chance in Tuesday's 2-0 victory against Burnley before being subbed off at the break with a hamstring issue. According to manag...
Impact Pereira was very active going forward from right-back against Burnley before being subbed out at halftime. He recently returned from a long-term leg injury that kept him out for the better part of three months, so his withdrawal Tuesday isn't a great sign. On a short week, it's unlikely he'll be in the XI next match, especially if he tweaked his hamstring.

Kasper Schmeichel - Keeps clean sheet against Burnley Schmeichel made two saves and kept a clean sheet in Tuesday's 2-0 victory against Burnley.
Impact Schmeichel kept his fourth clean sheet of the season Tuesday, and his first since Leicester's last Premier League win against Liverpool on Dec. 28. He will want to carry this momentum into Saturday's clash against Leeds United, which have scored 29 goals in 26 matches.

On Saturday he will face Leeds, which have conceded 20 goals in their last five in the Premier League.

James Maddison - Scores goal against Burnley Maddison subbed into Tuesday's match against Burnley in the 72nd minute and he scored a goal in his side's 2-0 victory.
Impact Maddison came off the bench for the second time in a row, and this time he was able to break the deadlock with an 82nd-minute goal.

He will want to have a similar effect on Saturday's clash against Leeds, which have conceded 20 goals in their last five games.

Jamie Vardy - Scores goal, assist against Burnley Vardy subbed into Tuesday's match against Burnley in the 72nd minute, and he scored a goal and recorded an assist in the 2-0 victory.
Impact Vardy made the difference off the bench in his first appearance of 2022, setting up fellow substitute James Maddison's winning goal and then sealing the result himself with a header in the 90th minute. Vardy has started just one of Leicester's last 10 Premier League games going back to early December due to first an ankle injury and then a hamstring injury, but he was back as a substitute on Tuesday and he proved crucial in getting the result against Burnley.
