Leicester - Newcastle Utd Leicester boss Nigel Pearson, meanwhile, insists changes will be made following their 2-2 draw at Liverpool on Thursday. A groin injury rules out midfielder Danny Drinkwater, but Paul Konchesky returns, while Jeffrey Schlupp (Ghana) and Riyad Mahrez (Algeria) are available for their last match before the African Cup of Nations. Ahead of tomorrows game Pearson said: It is fair to say we have made a number of changes through this [festive] period of games but there is no right or wrong way to do it. STEVEN TAYLOR will miss Newcastles FA Cup third round clash trip to Leicester as he awaits the results of tests on his injured ankle. Caretaker manager John Carver has Papiss Cisse suspended and the striker will not return until after Senegals Africa Cup of Nations campaign. Cheick Tiote and Mehdi Abeid will likewise join up with the Ivory Coast and Algeria squads respectively. Goalkeepers Tim Krul (ankle) and Rob Elliot (thigh), Siem de Jong (thigh), Rolando Aarons (hamstring), Gabriel Obertan (thigh), Sammy Ameobi and Ryan Taylor (both knee) are all still out.
