Team News: Leicester City unchanged for Crystal Palace trip

Leicester City name an unchanged XI for the trip to Crystal Palace, who welcome back Wayne Hennessey between the sticks.

Premier League leaders Leicester City have named an unchanged XI for their trip to Crystal Palace this afternoon.

Claudio Ranieri keeps faith with the 4-4-2 formation that edged out Newcastle United on Monday, with Shinji Okazaki again partnering Jamie Vardy up front as the Foxes look to extend their lead at the summit to eight points.

Riyad Mahrez, N'Golo Kante, Danny Drinkwater and Marc Albrighton continue in midfield, despite speculation that Jeffrey Schlupp could come in for the latter.

For the hosts, manager Alan Pardew makes just one change from the side that lost 2-1 to Liverpool in the league on March 6, as Wayne Hennessey returns between the sticks following his performance in the FA Cup win over Reading last weekend.

Crystal Palace: Hennessey; Ward, Dann, Delaney, Souare; Zaha, Cabaye, Jedinak, Ledley; Bolasie, Adebayor
Subs: Speroni, Kelly, Mutch, Sako, Puncheon, Campbell, Gayle

Leicester City: Schmeichel; Simpson, Morgan, Huth, Fuchs; Mahrez, Kante, Drinkwater, Albrighton; Okazaki, Vardy
Subs: Schwarzer, Amartey, Schlupp, Gray, Ulloa, Wasilewski, Inler
