Goalkeeper & Defence
Kasper Schmeichel (5.7) is their first choice keeper, and he recorded all of their 4 clean sheets in this year's competition. Captain Wes Morgan (5.7) is the leader of their defence, partnered by centre-back Robert Huth (5.7) and they are both dangerous in attack as well - the tall defenders do well at set-pieces. Christian Fuchs is the top pick from their defence though, as the left-back covers many corner and free kicks and is always ready for getting assists. Danny Simpson (5.4) is the right back, but does not offer much in attack so we suggest to avoid picking him.

The standout pick is surely last season's Premier League Player of the Year - magician Riyad Mahrez (8.1), who also takes penalties and direct free kicks - he scored 4 goals in the competition already. Marc Albrighton (5.9) and Danny Drinkwater (5.9) are the only two other options, but we still suggest to get Mahrez as the top fantasy pick from Leicester's team. He is currently on international duty though, so make sure to check how Algeria is doing at the African Cup of Nations.

Last years revelation Jamie Vardy (7.3) is not in the same incredibe scoring form this season, and is still searching for his debut goal in the Champions League. New signing Islam Slimani (6.9), on the other hand, seems to be the better pick with a lower price, especially since he has a great understanding with his compatriot Mahrez. Anyway, if you choose to have an attacking asset from Leicester City, riyal Mahrez is the one to choose.

Leicester's fairytale story seems to be coming to an end. They meet Sevilla in the Last 16 and the spanish team will most likely prove to be too strong for the reigning Premier League Champions.
