Timothy Castagne (hamstring) and Ayoze Pérez (illness) are in contention to feature for the Foxes
- Marc Albrighton could be out for up to three weeks after a heavy challenge in Russia
- Youri Tielemans (back) has been in post-match recovery this week and 'looks fine', Rodgers says
- Jonny Evans is managing a foot issue 'very well' following two consecutive starts for Leicester
- James Justin (ACL) may return to group training soon, Wilfred Ndidi (hamstring) 'isn’t too far away'
On the back of successive victories over Manchester United, in the Premier League, and Spartak Moscow, in the UEFA Europa League, the Foxes head to the capital on Sunday to tackle Thomas Frank's Bees outfit at Brentford Community Stadium.
Castagne (hamstring) and Pérez (illness) missed out on the trip to the Russian capital in midweek, but could return to contention this weekend. Rodgers also provided a positive update on Youri Tielemans and Jonny Evans – two players who were substituted at Otkrytie Bank Arena.
"Timothy Castagne, who wasn’t involved [at Spartak Moscow], should be okay," the Northern Irishman told the media at LCFC Training Ground on Friday afternoon. "Ayoze as well, he wasn’t feeling great for a few days, but he trained today and looked very good and strong, so that’s a bonus for us.
