Leicester team news

Leicester are expected to field a largely similar lineup to the one that triumphed in Wales, continuing with their 4-2-3-1 setup.

On the fitness front, Harry Souttar remains sidelined with an Achilles injury, while young defender Ben Nelson is a doubt due to a minor knock.

Portsmouth team news

Portsmouth will be without several key names for their trip to Leicester. Winger Josh Murphy continues to recover from an ankle injury and is not expected back until later in October.

Additionally, Franco Umeh, Conor Shaughnessy, and Callum Lang all remain out, leaving Mousinho with limited attacking options. Nicolas Schmid also remains doubtful.
