Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers admits Ricardo Pereira and Ayoze Perez are doubts for today's clash with Arsenal.
Rodgers delivered an update on the fitness of his squad at LCFC Training Ground in Seagrave on Friday afternoon. Both Ricardo and Pérez will be assessed internally over the coming 24 hours before a decision is made on City's squad.
"There's maybe a question mark on Ricardo Pereira," Rodgers said. "We'll see how Ricardo is. He just felt a bit tight from the game the other night. Ayoze Pérez has had a bit of a bug so he was kept away today and we'll see how he responds. Apart from that, all the players are fit and healthy and ready to go."
Jamie Vardy, on the other hand, was not involved during Wednesday's Carabao Cup shootout victory over Brighton & Hove Albion, after being substituted during the Premier League success at Brentford, but Rodgers says Leicester's No.9 is available for the visit of Arsenal.
"He's okay," the Northern Irishman added. "He's trained the last couple of days so he's fine."
