Leicester City v Brentford

Leicester City full-back Ricardo Pereira has been ruled out for six months after rupturing his Achilles in the friendly against Sevilla.

Brentford trio Kristoffer Ajer and Sergi Canos will both miss the start of the season through injury, while Ethan Pinnock is a long-term absentee.

Ben Mee could make his debut after joining on a free transfer from Burnley.

SUTTON'S PREDICTION

Leicester didn't have a disastrous campaign last season but it was a step back for them after two fifth-placed finishes.

They have seen keeper Kasper Schmeichel leave this month and if they lose Wesley Fofana and Maddison too, then that would be a major blow for them.
