Neilson back for Foxes

Fri, 14 Aug 10:07:12 2009

Right-back Robbie Neilson will return from suspension to make his Leicester debut against Ipswich at Portman Road.

The summer signing from Hearts has served a two-match ban carried over from last season for his disciplinary misdemeanours north of the border.

Midfielder Andy King comes back into contention after missing the Foxes` midweek Carling Cup win at Macclesfield while away on international duty with the Wales Under-21 squad.

Bulgarian defender Aleksandar Tunchev was also absent for the first-round tie at Moss Rose while away with his country, but having only recently returned from a cruciate ligament injury he is still lacking fitness.

Following Leicester`s impressive start to the season, manager Nigel Pearson said: "I am delighted to be going into the Ipswich game with two wins from our first two matches."
