Leicester were grand favourites in this home fixture vs. Cardiff. Enzo Maresca had before the kick off seen his team win three in three, and expectations from fans were to see the team continue to deliver and bring home another win.

Mads Hermansen was back in goal, Kelechi Iheanacho kept his place up front. Dennis Praet was absent and not in the squad, Wilfred Ndidi starting as the rest of the line-up was as against Huddersfield.

A few surprises in the line-up as Leicester had a difficult task away to Huddersfield. Jacub Stolarczyk kept his place in goal, covering for the injured Mads Hermansen, getting his league debut for Leicester. Starts also to Dennis Praet, Kelechi Iheanacho and Marcal Madivadua, as Wilfred Ndidi and Jamie Vardy had to start on the bench. Kasey McAteer was absent and not selected.

Enzo Maresca obviously made changes to the starting line-up from the weekend, but also kept key players, to understand the task in front and having controll in his selection, to avoid a banana skin.

Ndidi, Winks, Doyle and Faes were the four players left from the game vs. Coventry, giving starts to Albrighton, Justin, Iheanacho, Madivadua, Stolarczyk, Praet and Choudhury in a 3-4-2-1 set up.
