“Yunus is fine. He could be with us on Saturday. With Wilf, it’s tiredness, something a little bit more than tiredness, so he needs some days, and we don’t want to take risks for them.

“Wilf could play (on Saturday), we’ll see,” Maresca said after the game.

The 26-year-old has scored once in 12 league appearances for the Foxes this season.
