Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers says Jamie Vardy will see action in their FA Cup clash with Brighton.

Rodgers confirmed his fit-again striker will feature at some stage in Wednesday's fifth-round tie.

The 34-year-old made his comeback after a groin operation with half-an-hour in Sunday's goalless draw at Wolves, having missed three matches.

The Foxes boss said: "Wednesday's a big game for us. He hasn't lost too much fitness. It's only been a couple of weeks.

"We gave him half-an-hour and you could see the dynamism he brings the team.

"We'll definitely get him some minutes on Wednesday, whether it's the first period of the game or the second."
