NIGEL PEARSON says Leicester City are expecting a tough test tonight – but that Huddersfield Town should be too.

The East Midlands side climbed above Simon Grayson’s men into fifth by winning 2-1 at Middlesbrough on Saturday.

While they have a 100% home record, it was their first victory on the road after defeats at Charlton, Blackburn and Wolves.

“In all our away performance we have asked questions of the opposition and we haven’t been negative,” said Pearson.

“The players show a bit of resilience and we kept on going and continued to create some good opportunities.

“It is one of those where if you ask enough questions eventually you will get the rub of the green.”

On Town, Pearson pointed out: “Their defeat on Saturday is another illustration of the competitiveness of this league.

“They have been in good form and have had a good start to the season. It will be a tough game but they will be thinking the same about us.

“They are a decent side. They have some experience in the ranks especially at centre-back. I know there are one or two concerns for them up front, but they have good energy.
