Jamie Vardy will lead the line for Leicester City in their top-of-the-table clash with Manchester City.

Jamie Vardy will lead the line for Leicester City in their top-of-the-table clash with Manchester City at the King Power stadium tonight.

The Premier League's top scorer had been a doubt for the game having suffered with a fever over the festive period but is named alongside prolific strike partner Riyad Mahrez in Claudio Ranieri's starting XI.

The self-styled 'tinker man' makes just two changes from the side that lost 1-0 at Liverpool on Boxing Day, with Gokhan Inler and Danny Drinkwater in for Andy King and Shinji Okazaki.

For the visitors, Manuel Pellegrini makes one alteration to the side that tore apart Sunderland last time out, with Wilfried Bony making way for top scorer Sergio Aguero up front.

A win for the Foxes tonight would see them return to the summit of the Premier League with a two-point cushion, while three points for the visitors would see them leapfrog their rivals into second on goal difference.

Leicester City: Schmeichel; Simpson, Huth, Morgan, Fuchs; Inler, Drinkwater, Kanté; Mahrez, Vardy, Albrighton
Subs: De Laet, King, Okazaki, Ulloa, Dyer, Wasilewski, Schwarzer

Manchester City: Hart; Sagna, Otamendi, Mangala, Kolarov; Silva, Fernandinho; Toure, Sterling, De Bruyne; Aguero
Subs: Caballero, Demichelis, Horsfield, Zabaleta, Navas, Bony, Iheanacho
