Leicester City return to the King Power Stadium after three away games on the bounce. Relegation-threatened Oxford United are the visitors and there are plenty of questions to ask ahead of this one. For Fox Sake's Rob Hayes picks out five things to look out for on Saturday
Who will start in central midfield?
The performance against Wrexham matched the weather. It was miserable, particularly in the second half, but the lacklustre display was not the worst part of the evening. Jordan James’s hamstring finally felt the strain of having carried Leicester City throughout the entire season so far and he had to be replaced by Ricardo Pereira in the 41st minute.
James has been the only chink of light in a pretty grim campaign so far, not only thanks to his goals but his application and attitude, too. Add that to the fact that Oliver Skipp was taken off after feeling the effects of a head injury, and City are looking very light in the centre of the park.
