Demi Stokes has returned to training and is back in contention following a short spell on the sidelines. Esme Morgan remains a doubt, having been withdrawn at half time against Aston Villa due to injury.
Leicester recorded a convincing 3-0 win over Brighton in their last WSL outing to kickstart their bid to avoid the drop. However, they were hard done by with their postponement against Tottenham the following week, potentially stunting the momentum that had been built.
Man City underwhelmed against Aston Villa, but have typically had too much about them when facing sides in the bottom half of the WSL this season and will be expected to take three points against the Foxes.
