Huddersfield make their first ever trip to the Walkers Stadium and go in search of 3 points against the league leaders and a real test as to how far they have come in recent weeks.
Lee Clark is expected to name an unchanged line up for the 5th game in succession, with Werling a possibility from the bench.
Leicester are also set to name an unchanged line up, with Cleverley possibly making his full debut, he came on for the last 5 minutes in their 2-0 win at Yeovil last week.
Vital Quotes:
Huddersfield gaffer Lee Clark told BBC Radio Leeds ahead of the game:
‘These are the games the players should look forward to and they excite you.
‘There will be a great crowd there and we’ll take lots of fans too.
‘It will be a tough game, but one the players should relish and we are looking forward to it.
‘They are beatable – no team in the world is unbeatable.’
Leicester Boss Nigel Pearson spoke to This is Leicestershire ahead of the meeting with The Terriers:
‘They have set the standards themselves while I am always looking over my shoulder again for a dip. That is something I am always aware of.
‘Talk to the players and you will find there is a lot of confidence about them, which is good, but it is a fine line.
‘You have to keep them on the straight and narrow, and every game we play is a potential slip.
