Steve Beaglehole’s outfit stormed through the group stages of the competition with victories over Schalke, Benfica and Manchester City, and finished with a 100 per cent record at the top of Group C.
The Foxes have lost just once in nine games in all competitions – a run that started with a 1-0 Barclays U21 Premier League victory over Everton back in early January.
City will face a Toffees side who finished second in Group D courtesy of a triumph over Sunderland and a draw with Celtic.
Entry to Thursday's fixture at Belvoir Drive will be free, but there are limited parking spaces available on site.
