Fulham look to have no fresh injury concerns.

Leicester City forward Jamie Vardy is unlikely to recover in time to face Fulham, while Wilfred Ndidi misses out once again. 

Timothy Castagne (hamstring) is a major doubt, but Wesley Fofana (hamstring) will be assessed and has a chance of featuring. 

Did you know?

Fulham have lost only one of their seven Premier League meetings with Leicester (W3 D3).

Fulham's Bobby De Cordova-Reid has netted seven goals in 22 matches in all competitions in 2020/21, one more than he managed last season in 46 appearances for the Cottagers. Only in 2017/18 for Bristol City has he scored more in a single season, with 21. 

Only Manchester United have earned more away points in the PL this season than Leicester (23), who are unbeaten in their last seven away from home in all competitions (W5 D2). They last had a longer such run between April and December 2015, spanning 14 matches. 

Leicester midfielder Youri Tielemans has been directly involved in at least one goal in all four of the Foxes’ away contests in all competitions in 2021, scoring three goals and assisting another.
