Leicester City
Jonny Evans lasted all of six minutes against Newcastle before going off with a hamstring problem, so Boubakary Soumare may be drafted in as an emergency centre-back on Thursday.
The club's COVID-19 contingent are believed to include Jannik Vestergaard, Ayoze Perez, Ademola Lookman, Daniel Amartey, Kelechi Iheanacho, Hamza Choudhury and Filip Benkovic, with none of them set to take part this weekend.
James Justin and Wesley Fofana also remain out injured for Leicester, and Rodgers may elect to keep Jamie Vardy among the reserves before clashes with Everton, Manchester City and Liverpool.
Leicester City possible starting lineup:
Schmeichel; Pereira, Soumare, Soyuncu, Thomas; Ndidi, Tielemans; Maddison, Dewsbury-Hall, Barnes; Daka
Tottenham Hotspur
Spurs did not confirm which players tested positive for coronavirus, but Bryan Gil, Emerson Royal, Son Heung-min, Oliver Skipp, Dane Scarlett and Lucas Moura are believed to be among them.
Conte is also without the injured Cristian Romero until 2022, but Sergio Reguilon is expected to be fine despite coming off injured in the Norwich win.
Harry Winks, Tanguy Ndombele and Steven Bergwijn can all feel hopeful of earning starts amid Spurs' absentee crisis, and there may even be a spot for Dele Alli in the XI.
Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup:
Lloris; Sanchez, Dier, Davies; Tanganga, Hojbjerg, Winks, Reguilon; Alli, Bergwijn; Kane
Prediction: Leicester City 2-0 Tottenham Hotspur
