Assistant manager Craig Shakespeare believes Andy King is the Foxes' main goal-threat at the moment.

King, 21, has hit scoring form from midfield for Leicester and Shakespeare believes he can torment Cardiff again this weekend.

King hit 11 goals in 50 appearances in all competitions last season in League One and he has gone on to prove he can handle the step up to the Championship this term.

"I know it was in a league lower, but Andy proved last season what a good finisher he is, and also how valuable his goals can be," said Shakespeare.

"He shows composure in front of goal for a young player. He is more than capable of getting into double figures, without wanting to put too much pressure on him.

"The lad is a good finisher and he should be in and around there to get into double figures."
