Posted Wednesday, December 04, 2019 by PA
Leicester will check on the fitness of Demarai Gray ahead of their home game against managerless Watford.

Craig Dawson (head) and Christian Kabasele (hamstring) thought are out and the injury list also includes Daryl Janmaat (knee), Tom Cleverley (heel), Danny Welbeck (hamstring) and Sebastian Prodl (knee).
