Leicester have no fresh injury issues for the welcome of Nottingham Forest with Patson Daka, Hamza Choudhury, Jannik Vestergaard and Jakub Stolarczyk sidelined.

Leicester vs Nottingham Forest Score Prediction

 

Leicester will have been buoyed by their late 3-2 win at Southampton last weekend but they come up against a Nottingham Forest side that boasts the second best defensive record in the Premier League. Forest have drawn their last two away league matches and a third successive stalemate wouldn’t be a huge surprise.
