Leicester go into tonight’s replay having retained top spot in League I with a 3-0 win against Leyton Orient.

Boss Nigel Pearson said: “It was a good win. The performance pleased me and we were well worth the points.

“It’s another fixture negotiated and we remain at the top, which is what we are trying to do.

“We played some good football and it was a solid all-round performance, so we want to keep that going in the Cup.”

Leicester have re-signed Mark Davies on loan from Wolves and he will be available to face Town.
