Boss Claude Puel insists Leicester must be mentally strong to avoid an upset at Newport. “It is important to look at this team and look at the history of this team,” said Puel. “They also play rugby on this pitch as well so I don’t know if the pitch is good to play football. Puel will rotate his side, with Wes Morgan fit again after illness, but knows the Foxes must respect the competition. “I think we need to be ready because I know the tradition of the cup,” he told a press conference.
