Leicester welcome Premier League title challengers Arsenal to the King Power Stadium looking to bounce back from a rather controversial FA Cup fourth round exit to Manchester United.
Despite his age, the 38-year-old remains a key player for Leicester and looks set to lead the line against Arsenal as the Foxes aim to end a run of four successive home defeats in the league without scoring.
Ruud van Nistelrooy has confirmed that three of his injured Leicester players are in contention to return against Arsenal.
Vardy’s last outing was the 4-0 defeat by Everton at the beginning of the month as he lasted an hour before being substituted and subsequently missed the trip to Old Trafford.
Starting the day in the relegation zone, an upset win over the Gunners would move the Foxes out of the bottom three - albeit potentially for 24 hours -.
