Martí Cifuentes has provided a fitness update for Saturday's trip to Coventry City
Leicester City could have Jannik Vestergaard and Boubakary Soumaré available for the game
Vestergaard had an ankle issue at Cheltenham, while Soumaré has been out since November
Victor Kristiansen, Harry Souttar and Aaron Ramsey are the absentees for City

We head to Coventry Building Society Arena for a 12:30pm GMT kick-off on the back of successive victories over West Bromwich Albion, in the Sky Bet Championship, and Cheltenham Town, in the Emirates FA Cup.

Centre-back Vestergaard picked up an ankle complaint at Cheltenham, while Soumaré has been absent since late November, but both have been in training this week.

“[Vestergaard] just twisted, or rolled, his ankle,” Cifuentes told the media in Seagrave. “He’s good, training with the team, and is ready for Saturday.

“There’s nothing else. Bouba has trained with the group. He’s doing well, has recovered from his injury, and will be available as well.”

Victor Kristiansen, Harry Souttar and Aaron Ramsey are longer-term absentees for the Foxes, who will again be out this weekend, and all are still ‘weeks’ away from returns.

“At the moment, in terms of injuries, we've got Victor, Souts and Aaron,” Cifuentes added. “All of them are on their way. It’ll take weeks, for all of them, until they’re back.”
