Andy King makes his changes for the away game vs. Birmingham later today. He has all four of his new men in the squad, Lascelles and Aribo starting, Richards and Mikasa on the subs bench. Oliver Skipp is back as Andy King said in the press conference. Jannik Vestergaard is still out injured, Caleb Okoli suspended.
No starts for Harry Winks and Olabade Aluko, despite being the two best players on the field vs. Charlton. They are both on the subs bench.
A difficult away game against a team that has shown quality. Leicester were the better team in the opposite fixture at home, but with all things happening at the moment this looks a major trouble.
Joe Aribo and Jamaal Lascelles are both in from start, both being at risk to pick up injuries. Both have been on the fringe at their previous clubs and not really seen much football . To see them last 90 minutes looks almost impossible.

Patson Daka has also been thrown back in, with a new attacking option signed, you would have thought that would impossible. But Andy King believe Dujuan Richards is more of a flank alternative. What is going on, when you feel that the position with almost no quality to fill, has not been done anything with. Daka and Ayew are not idieal top striker options, and to change them in and out, shows that you have a major problem on your hand.
We certainly hope this will work out in the best way possible, but it looks an odd set up and not really what would been the ideal in our view.
