Leicester are facing lower league opposition for the third round in a row, having previously disposed of Wigan and Brentford. This fixture couldn't come at a better time of the Foxes, who are desperate to turn their season around after a disastrous run of form.
Brendan Rodgers' side has failed to take three points in five straight matches. Most recently, the Foxes were shocked 1-0 by last-place Norwich City in the Premier League on Friday.
Though Leicester are undoubtedly the favorites in this fixture, the squad may take the pitch today without hobbled talisman Jamie Vardy, who is tied for the the EPL lead with 17 goals.
