Caretaker manager Michael Appleton hopes to continue to build some momentum for Leicester by taking the club into the latter stages of the Carabao Cup.

The squad certainly looked in good spirits while training ahead of their clash with Leeds on Tuesday night.

The Foxes will look to build on their weekend win over Swansea and progress to the quarter-finals of the competition.
