Caglar Soyuncu - Back in starting XI Soyuncu (hamstring) is in the starting XI for Wednesday's match against Tottenham.

Impact Soyuncu gets the call Wednesday after missing the last month with a hamstring injury. He's a nice boost to the back line and it's a great spot for another home win and possible clean sheet for Leicester, as Tottenham are without Son Heung-Min in their attack.

Luke Thomas - Starting against Spurs Thomas (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Wednesday's match against Tottenham.

Impact Thomas is back in the squad Wednesday after missing the recent Cup match with a minor issue. While he played at left-back in recent contests, it looks like he could be a wing-back against Tottenham, which could lead to a bit more attacking value than he's had.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall - In starting XI Wednesday Dewsbury-Hall (calf) is in the starting XI for Wednesday's match against Tottenham.

Impact Dewsbury-Hall returns as expected Wednesday and it looks like he's in a central midfield role next to Youri Tielemans. Prior to missing the last Cup match, Dewsbury-Hall was seeing regular minutes and getting up the field a decent amount no matter his position.

Patson Daka - Starting against Tottenham Daka (hamstring) is in the starting XI for Wednesday's match against Tottenham.

Impact Daka was ready over the weekend and he had a couple more days of training to allow him to make the XI Wednesday. He may not be ready for a full 90 in his return from a hamstring injury, but he's leading Leicester's attack and that will produce opportunities.

Ayoze Perez - Getting limited minutes Perez started in Leicester's recent Cup win against Watford and also went 45 minutes in the 6-3 loss to Manchester City last month.

Impact Perez is getting minutes, but recent starts have almost been out of necessity. He has three league starts this season and even with injuries, he seems far down the depth chart, mainly because Ademola Lookman has taken that role on the wing after Perez started 15 contests last campaign.

Boubakary Soumare - Available after illness Soumare (illness) is available for Wednesday's match against Tottenham, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.

Impact Soumare has recovered in the last few days and is an option again, though it's unknown where he's at fitness wise. He'd been out for roughly a week and may not be pushed to start, as it seems like they have a decent XI to use against Tottenham with Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Hamza Choudhury both options to start at defensive midfield.

Timothy Castagne - Out up to nine weeks Castagne will be out up to nine weeks after undergoing surgery for a bleeding issue in his thigh, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.

Impact This is a tough injury for Leicester and at the wrong time for them, given other injuries and absences. Castagne had started 12 of the prior 13 matches in league and UEL play and will have to be replaced. Marc Albrighton is likely to step in at right-back for an upcoming match or two, but the thought is that James Justin will be able to start shortly following his return from injury.

James Michael Justin - Available on limited basis Justin (knee) is available for upcoming matches, but playing time remains an unknown, according to manager Brendan Rodgers. "He's done remarkably well to get back when he has, he l...

Impact If fully fit, Justin would likely slide into right-back Wednesday due to Timothy Castagne's injury. However, given Justin's lack of pitch time, it wouldn't be surprising if he came off the bench Wednesday and then if all went well, was given the start Sunday against Brighton. For now, it's assumed Marc Albrighton will start at right-back Wednesday.
