Leicester City v Millwall Preview

Nigel Pearson has the rare luxury of choosing from a fully fit squad. Ritchie De Laet has recovered fully from an ankle injury and Matty James has overcome a knee problem. Chris Wood returned early from International duty with New Zealand and is also available for selection. Andy King featured in both of Wales International fixtures, playing a full 90 minutes against Croatia on Tuesday and coming through unscathed. St. Ledger made a brief substitute's appearance for the Republic of Ireland and Kasper Schmeichel warmed the bench for both of Denmark's matches.

With a fully fit squad and a week's warm weather training in Portugal under their belts, City welcome Millwall to the King Power Stadium tomorrow night. The Lions are in 14th place, with nothing tangible to play for in the remaining few games. City have everything to play for, including their manager's future. It's time for the players to show how much Nigel Pearson means to them. With at least 4 wins needed from 8 games to scrape into the play-off places, anything other than a victory for Leicester tomorrow night is unthinkable.
