Team News: Leicester City's internationals all feature

The likes of Jamie Vardy, Danny Drinkwater and N'Golo Kante all return from international duty to start for league leaders Leicester City against Southampton.

Leicester City manager Claudio Ranieri has sprung no surprises with his starting lineup for today's game against Southampton at the King Power Stadium.

A number of players - including Jamie Vardy, Danny Drinkwater and N'Golo Kante - all went away on international duty last week, but they have returned with a clean bill of health.

There was also a slight doubt over the availability of goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel after he left a Denmark training session early, yet he has been cleared to play.

As for the visitors, boss Ronald Koeman has recalled Victor Wanyama, Sadio Mane and Matt Targett.

On the bench is striker Jay Rodriguez, who has spent the last four months on the sidelines with an ankle problem.

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

Southampton: Forster; Cedric, Fonte, Van Dijk, Bertrand; Clasie, Wanyama, Davis, Mane, Targett; Pelle
Subs: Stekelenburg, Yoshida, Rodriguez, Tadic, Romeu, Ward-Prowse, Austin
