Team News: Jeffrey Schlupp passed fit for West Ham United test

Ghana international Jeffrey Schlupp passes a late fitness test and is included in the Leicester City side that takes on West Ham United.

Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson has been able to select Jeffrey Schlupp for today's Premier League clash with West Ham United after the Ghana winger was passed fit following his international appearance in midweek.

However, the Foxes are without Matthew Upson and Dean Hammond, who both miss out through injury.

The Hammers welcome back Winston Reid after a month on the sidelines with a hamstring problem, but Enner Valencia is not ready to return to action following his toe injury.

Striker Andy Carroll and defenders James Tomkins and Doneil Henry remain long-term injury absentees for Sam Allardyce's side.

Leicester City: Schmeichel; De Laet, Morgan, Huth; Schlupp, Cambiasso, James, Mahrez; Nugent, Vardy, Ulloa.

West Ham United: Adrian; Jenkinson, Collins, Reid, Cresswell; Nolan (c), Kouyate, Downing, Noble, Song; Sakho.
