A 4pm kick-off at Crystal Palace Training Ground, the Foxes youngsters are targeting a strong finish to 2021/22 following defeat to Liverpool last time out. A 4-0 reverse at LCFC Training Ground ended their run of three consecutive wins.

Currently sixth in the Premier League 2 Division 1 standings, Leicester could end up as high as fourth but face a Palace side who emerged as 6-1 victors when the sides last met back in September.

Speaking ahead of the latest clash against Paddy McCarthy’s outfit, Under-23s coach Ben Petty commented: “It’ll be another tough game, another physical game for the players to deal with.

“I think Crystal Palace will be similar to Liverpool in terms of age, they’ll be a little bit older than us, and a little bit more physical. So we’ve got to cope with that challenge a little bit better to finish the season strong.”

Foxes fans will be able to keep updated on all the action from south London via @LCFC's social media channels, which will provide team news from 3pm and live updates throughout the 90 minutes, exclusive to Twitter.

Following the full-time whistle, post-match coverage will include a full round-up of the game’s events posted on LCFC.com, alongside post-match interviews with members of the dressing room via LCFC TV, giving their reaction to the season finale.

Goals and extended highlights from the encounter with the Eagles are then to be published on the Club’s website in the days following the game.
