Six changes to key personnel and the Foxes still eased to victory.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Iheanacho scored for a third consecutive game, this time amongst the starters as his 24th minute strike fired the Foxes in front against an injury-struck Stoke team that failed to provide much of a contest.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It wasn&#8217;t the electric start home supporters have seen in recent games with the new-look defence of Jannik Vestergaard and Harry Souttar slower in their ability to recycle the ball, while Ndidi&#8217;s absence affected the flow that has previously been the key to unlocking opposition teams.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But they still had enough firepower to crumble Stoke&#8217;s resolve. The second-half was more free flowing as Leicester began to toy with their opponents, largely through Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall who was denied what looked set to be a certain goal after the playmaker surged through only to be denied by a strong hand from Mark Travers as the Stoke goalkeeper stayed on his feet.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/07\/17\/76280891-0-image-a-59_1696697550084.jpg\" height=\"428\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>In-form Kelechi Iheanacho scored for a third consecutive game for Leicester in the win<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/07\/17\/76280895-0-image-a-56_1696697532784.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>36-year-old\u00a0Jamie Vardy made the points secure for the side who lead the Championship table<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/07\/17\/76280907-0-image-m-58_1696697541830.jpg\" height=\"630\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Leicester are two points clear of Ipswhich in second having won ten of their first 11 games<\/p>\n<p>Vardy wrapped up three points by doing what he has done best throughout his magnificent Leicester career.
