Patson Daka starts for Leicester City at Turf Moor

Patson Daka has returned to the Leicester City starting lineup for this evening’s English Premier League clash at Turf Moor.

Daka leads the Foxes attack as they look to return to winning ways in the league having last recorded a win the EPL in December, 1-0 against Liverpool at King Power Stadium.

Manager Brendan Rogers has made four changes to the team that beat Randers away in Denmark.

Ricardo Pereira, Söyüncü, Kierian Dewsburry Hall, and Daka come in to replace Jannik Vestergaard, James Madison, Ademola Lookman, and Kelechi Iheanacho.

Daka will be supported in attack by Harvey Barnes and Marc Albrighton who will play on either wing.

Kasper Schmeichel starts between the sticks as expected with Pereira, Thomas, Daniel Amartey and Çağlar Söyüncü making up the back four.

Wilfred Ndidi, Youri Tielemans and Kierian Drewsburry Hall make up the midfield trio.

Daka has managed four goals and three assists in his 12 EPL appearances and will look to better those statistics this evening.

Leicester are 13th in the Premier League but they have up to four games in hand on sides around them hence they have a chance to make up ground and climb the table.
