Claudio Ranieri hopes to have midfielder Danny Drinkwater fit and available for Leicester's trip to Chelsea on Saturday.
Drinkwater was not available for selection for England's recent World Cup qualifiers against Malta and Slovenia due to a groin injury.
The 26-year-old, who scored Leicester's goal at Stamford Bridge on the final day of last season as the champions concluded their campaign with a 1-1 draw, has used the international break to recover and has resumed training.
Foxes manager Ranieri will check on Drinkwater on Friday and hope he has suffered no reaction.
"It was a little problem with the groin but I hope tomorrow, I speak with the doctor, he will be okay," said the Italian.
