Kelechi Iheanacho is one of the fringe Leicester City players expected to feature for the Foxes when they face Luton Town in Tuesday’s (today) third round Carabao Cup clash.

The Nigeria striker is yet to play a single minute of competitive football this season, for both club and country.

He has been regularly left out of matchday squads, most recently on the weekend, and that’s despite enjoying a decent pre-season where he scored three goals in four games.

The 23-year-old has made eight appearances in the Carabao Cup competition and has scored four goals

At the Bramall Lane, Alex Iwobi heads into their Carabao Cup third round tie against Sheffield Wednesday under pressure following the 2-0 shock defeat at home to Sheffield United.

Iwobi, who scored in his first start in the competition against Lincoln in August, will be gunning for his second (third goal of the season) after firing blanks in his last two games against Bournemouth and Sheffield United.

Oghenekaro Etebo will hope to make his second Carabao Cup appearance for Stoke City when they face Crawley Town.

Etebo made his debut in the competition against Huddersfield in their 2-0 win last season. The duo Leon Balogun and Isaac Success will miss their respective teams’ third round ties due to injuries.
