Leicester make three changes to their starting XI in the wake of their dramatic 3-2 comeback victory at Southampton last Saturday. Bilal El Khannouss and Oliver Skipp drop to the bench, while Victor Kristiansen is injured. Ricardo Pereira, Harry Winks and Abdul Fatawu step up.
Forest follow up their 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace on Monday night by making the sum total of zero changes. If it ain’t broke, etc. James Ward-Prowse returns from suspension and takes up a place on the bench, but Morgan Gibbs-White remains injured.
Welcome to our coverage of the Matt Gillies derby.One for the heads there. Steve Cooper’s breaking no new ground by flitting up and down the A46, you see; we could also go with Dave Bassett, Micky Adams, Gary Megson or Martin O’Neill if you’d prefer. Kick-off is at 8pm BST. It’s on!
