Leicester City handed triple injury boost ahead of Manchester United clash

Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers has confirmed injured trio James Maddison, Youri Tielemans and Boubakary Soumare will be fit for this weekend's game against Manchester United.

The Foxes travel to Old Trafford on Sunday off the back of three consecutive wins in all competitions, having scored four goals against both Aston Villa and Tottenham since the start of February to lift them away from relegation danger.
