Leicester prepare to host Norwich in the Premier League on Wednesday night hoping to end a run of seven games without a win in all competitions, including defeat to Everton at the weekend.

They won't get a better chance to end that streak than here against the league's already relegated bottom club at home this week.

Here's a look at the starting XI Brendan Rodgers could pick...

GK: Kasper Schmeichel - This season hasn't been his best - only 9 clean sheets in 49 games in all competitions so far is testament to that.


CB: Wesley Fofana - His return to action in recent weeks after a long-term injury layoff has been a rare bright spark in an otherwise disappointing period.


CB: Caglar Soyuncu - Leicester have played a lot of football in recent weeks and the Turk could return to the team after missing out against Everton to give Jonny Evans a night off.


CB: Daniel Amartey - Has started both Premier League games this week and could make that a third in this one, despite a pile up of games.


RWB: Timothy Castagne - Utilised at centre-back, left-back and right wing-back in the last four games alone, but should remain in the latter for the second game in a row.


CM: Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall - Missed out against Spurs earlier this month because a brief injury absence but has otherwise been a regular starter since December.


CM: Nampalys Mendy - Could keep his place in the team as a result of James Maddison still being a doubt with a minor injury.


CM: Youri Tielemans - Will likely have a lot of freedom to dictate play against a poor opposition. Due a goal because he has only scored once in the Premier League this calendar year.


LWB: Luke Thomas - Potentially set for a recall on the left flank, having been an unused substitute in three of the club's last four games in the Premier League and Europe.


ST: Jamie Vardy - Yet to start a Premier League game since his return from injury, but has featured for substantial periods of each of the last three and started home and away against Roma.


ST: Patson Daka - Netted in the defeat to Everton at the weekend and may be considered more likely to keep his place than Kelechi Iheanacho if Vardy returns to the XI.
