Leicester v Crystal Palace LIVE: Riyad Mahrez will look to continue his fine form

Leicester are still without Robert Huth and Matty James, who continue their recovery from ankle and Achilles problems.

Vicente Iborra and Marc Albrighton will hope to earn recalls after being rested in midweek.

Crystal Palace will be without the suspended Luka Milivojevic for the visit to Leicester.

The central midfielder serves a one-match ban, and his absence is worsened by respective calf, groin and hamstring injuries to Mamadou Sakho, Joel Ward and Timothy Fosu-Mensah.

In their absences, Martin Kelly is expected to return at right-back, and Scott Dann and James Tomkins will continue in central defence. James McArthur and James Puncheon compete to replace Milivojevic.

Roy Hodgson has admitted the form of Christian Benteke is a concern. He said: “Of course him not scoring is a concern to us, him and the fans.

“He needs to keep working hard and make a good contribution to the team. We can't afford to carry anyone, let alone a goalscorer who isn't scoring goals.

“We won't keep reminding him about it. I wouldn't be gaining a great deal by doing that.”
