What does that mean? For Brentford, the big news is Christian Eriksen missing out having test positive for Covid-19, thus ripping up the preamble but get well soon, Christian. He’s replaced by compatriot Mathias Jensen while Sergi Canos is dropped to the bench as Yoane Wissa comes in. On initial examination, this will be a hard-running Brentford team. Saman Ghoddos is also absent with the Covid.
For Leicester, a long-awaited return for Thomas Castagne, after three months out. No Wesley Fofana despite playing against Rennes, he is replaced by Caglar Soyuncu. In come James Maddison and Nampalys Mendy come in for Marc Albrighton and Wilfred Ndidi. Still no Jamie Vardy or Jonny Evans among others.
