- Leicester City manager Claude Puel provides his pre-Tottenham Hotspur fitness update
- The Foxes boss will be without Matty James and Robert Huth for the encounter
- There have been no other new injury concerns for the Frenchman to deal with this week
- Spurs visit King Power Stadium on Tuesday evening (7:45pm kick-off)

Huth (ankle) and James (Achilles) are sidelined, but Puel will have an otherwise fully-fit squad at his disposal when City welcome Spurs to King Power Stadium on Tuesday (7:45pm kick-off).

“For the moment, we have no new injured players,” the Frenchman told the national media on Monday afternoon, previewing the clash with Mauricio Pochettino's side.

“It’s just Huth and James who are not available but all the others are. We will see for some rotation. We are playing a match four days after the last [a 1-1 draw at West Ham United on Friday].

“I don’t know when they can come back into the team. [There is] no possibility at the moment for them to play on the pitch.”
