Pearson spoilt for choice

Nigel Pearson is set to name the same Leicester side which won 2-1 at QPR a week ago for Saturday's visit of West Bromwich Albion.

The Foxes chief will be without Bulgarian defender Aleksandar Tunchev, who is continuing to recover from a knee operation, but will otherwise have a fully fit squad to select from.

The one possible change Pearson could make is to replace Dany N'Guessan with the more experienced Paul Gallacher, although that would be harsh on the young forward who set up Matty Fryatt's first goal and ran R's stopper Peter Ramage ragged at Loftus Road last week.

Bruno Berner replaced Ryan McGivern in defence against Rangers and he will hope to stay in Pearson's starting XI, while Michael Morrison, Yann Kermorgant, Steve Howard and DJ Campbell are all available and vying for a place in the side.
