(Reuters) - Leicester City manager Craig Shakespeare has said he expects Jamie Vardy to overcome his hip problem with rest during the international break. Vardy picked up a knock in the 1-1 draw at Huddersfield and played in the 3-2 defeat to Liverpool last week with the help of a pain-killing injection. "Over the next seven to 10 days we will assess it (hip injury) and see where we go with it, but I am expecting it to get better because he has had the rest," Shakespeare told the Leicester Mercury. He has been a bit under the weather this week but we have been managing his hip... so it is his first time on the grass on Thursday," he added. Bournemouth are two spots below their rivals but have not lost in the four league meetings between the two teams.
