David Nugent has earned a start for high-flying Leicester City after scoring a brace in the 4-1 win over Derby County last weekend.

He partners Martyn Waghorn in attack, replacing Jamie Vardy, in what is the only change for Nigel Pearson's side.

For Barnsley, there are no fewer than five changes from their 4-1 defeat to Watford.

Leicester: Schmeichel; De Laet, Morgan, Whitbread, Konchesky; King, Drinkwater, Knockaert, Dyer; Nugent, Waghorn

Barnsley: Steele; Golbourne, Wiseman, Stones, Cranie; Greening, Noble-Lazarus, O'Brien, Dawson, Buzsaky; Davies
