Huddersfield in the last round suffered his first defeat of the season, but also 7 points after 4 rounds - an excellent result for "terriers". A very important point for the team of David Wagner is whether the main striker of the team Steve Mauny will be able to recover to this game. The forward received a painful blow in the match with West Ham, but is predicted to have time to return to the match with Lester.

But Lester started the season not the best way. But nothing surprising, because in the first 4 rounds, "foxes" already managed to play with Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea. Team Shakespeare this season has already removed the scalp from one novice elite (Brighton) and now intends to do the same trick with Huddersfield, because ahead of another heavy fight - against Liverpool.

Good news came from the infirmary "fox". Vicente Iborra and Robert Huth again pretend to play time after they got practice in the match for the duplicate line-up of Leicester. Huth is unlikely to return to the base, fairly firmly occupied by Gary Maguire, but the Spaniard may make his debut - especially since his rival Matty James was injured.

Interesting Facts:.

- Huddersfield and Leicester will play for the 60th time. But in the top flight - for the first time since the 1971/1972 season.

- "Terriers" can only become the third newcomer of the elite, who kept their goal at the castle in the first three home games of the Premier League. Earlier it was possible Swansea (2011/2012) and Watford (2015/2016).

- Jamie Vardi scored 11 goals and made 3 assistants in 17 Premier League matches under Craig Shakespeare.

The trainers say:.

David Wagner, Huddersfield: "Of course, I like the story that happened with Lester in the year before last. But this does not cancel the fact that we want to defeat the ".

Craig Shakespeare, Lester: "The success of Huddersfield did not surprise me, although it will not be difficult for him to fly out. From what I have seen - this is a strong spirit team, against which it is difficult to play ".
