Jamie Vardy has been told to expect a game off during what Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers has described as a "nonsense" festive schedule.
Leicester face an 8pm kick-off on Boxing Day for their top-of-the-Premier League clash with Liverpool at the King Power Stadium, and then go again 45.5 hours later when they visit West Ham.
Only Wolves have a shorter turnaround time – at 44 hours and 45 minutes – in between matches just after Christmas.
"When I was in Scotland (with Celtic), they do it properly. You play a game on New Year's Eve, and then you have a three-week break.
"You have a week to recover, the second week to maybe do some training with your team, and the third for getting ready. The players are then refreshed.
"I don't think this is that at all. It's certainly not a mid-season break. This year they've wanted to do it, and they've had a little play at it. Hopefully next season they can do a proper break."
