Leicester's squad is unchanged for the visit of Midlands rivals West Brom.

Bulgarian defender Aleksandar Tunchev remains the only absentee as he recovers from another knee operation.

Manager Nigel Pearson is unlikely to make too many changes to his starting line-up following last Friday's 2-1 over QPR.

Dany N'Guessan was recalled at Loftus Road after spending the last month warming the bench and the forward responded with a superb performance, giving Rangers full-back Peter Ramage a torrid time with his power and pace.

N'Guessan provided the cross for Matty Fryatt's first goal that levelled the score at 1-1. The only other change saw Bruno Berner replace Ryan McGivern in defence.

However, N'Guessan may not keep his place in the side with Pearson possibly favouring the experience of Paul Gallacher. McGivern, Michael Morrison, Yann Kermorgant, Steve Howard and DJ Campbell are available should Pearson wish to freshen things up.

West Brom midfielder Youssouf Mulumbu has returned to training to ensure Roberto Di Matteo has close to a fully-fit squad for the trip to fellow high-flyers Leicester.

Mulumbu missed last weekend's 5-0 rout over Watford after tweaking a knee ligament but was back in the fold on Tuesday to hand Di Matteo a selection poser, after Gonzalo Jara deputised well in the middle of the park alongside Graham Dorrans.

Roman Bednar was an unused substitute against the Hornets in what was his first game back since suffering a trapped nerve in his back, and he gained vital match practice for the reserves in midweek as they brushed aside Burton 10-0.

Northern Ireland international midfielder Chris Brunt also made his comeback from a calf problem and is again expected to start, despite being substituted just after the hour mark.

Simon Cox grabbed his first league goal for the club last weekend in what was only his second start and Di Matteo must now decide whether to keep faith will the former Swindon marksman, and indeed his entire starting XI, after seeing them get back to winning ways in style.

The Italian's only absentees remain long-term victims James Morrison (heel), Ishmael Miller and Neil Clement (both knee).
