Leicester City travel to Cardiff City in the first game since the tragic helicopter accident that killed owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha and four others last weekend.

The Foxes, who drew 1-1 with West Ham prior to the tragedy, postponed their midweek League Cup tie with Southampton but will be looking for a first win since late September in the Welsh capital in honour of their late Thai owner.

Cardiff were well beaten by Liverpool last weekend after their win over Fulham the week previous, but they will be looking to get points on the board with fixtures against Tottenham, Chelsea and Manchester City all out of the way.

Player to watch

Ben Chilwell: The left-back continues to churn out performance after performance and he was once again the bright spark against West Ham. The Foxes struggled to get on the front foot for large parts of the game but the England international always seemed the most likely outlet for Leicester to get them going forward. He will be looking to cause more problems to a shaky Cardiff defence at the weekend.
