Craig Shakespeare unsure if Jamie Vardy will be fit for Leicester's Premier League clash with Liverpool

Leicester City are still sweating on the fitness of Jamie Vardy ahead of Saturday's clash with Liverpool.

The England international missed Tuesday night's 2-0 Carabao Cup win over the Reds due to a groin injury.

Leicester are set to face Liverpool again this weekend in the Premier League and boss Craig Shakespeare is uncertain if Vardy will be fit in time.

"No news yet. I am expecting him to train Thursday but, as of yet, no news," he said.

Midfielder Matty James is also a doubt for Saturday's match with Liverpool at the King Power due to an Achilles problem.
