Leicester City will be hoping to keep their spot at the top of the table when they take on managerless Crystal Palace this weekend.

The home side currently sit equal on points with Cardiff City in the Championship table but they can help secure the number one spot by picking up three points.

Meanwhile, Palace will take on their first match without manager Dougie Freedman, who was announced as the new boss of Bolton Wanderers today.

Leicester are likely to line up with Martyn Waghorn and David Nugent up front, while the away side could opt for Glenn Murray to lead the side as a lone striker.
