Jonny Evans
Evans picked up a calf injury back in October that saw him miss five league games on the bounce.
However, he returned to action in midweek and is likely to start vs the Hammers.
Bertrand has been out of action since 2021/22 when he was forced to undergo knee surgery.
The left-back still does not have a clear-cut return date.
Ricardo Pereira
Pereira is another long-term absentee but he looks set to return in the new year.
James Justin
With Bertrand and Pereira both out, Justin has been a key figure for Leicester this season, including scoring in the League Cup vs Newport earlier this week.
However, the full-back ruptured his Achilles Tendon in that match and is now out for the rest of the season:
“He will have his operation [on Thursday] and it will probably put him out for the rest of the season,” said Foxes boss Brendan Rodgers.
“We will see how he recovers and go from there.”
