Leicester City midfielder Marc Albrighton says his side are up for a fight when they take on Copenhagen in the Champions League on Wednesday.

The Foxes now have a chance to secure their spot in the round of 16 and will be hoping to maintain their 100 per cent record in the European tournament.

The 26-year-old says they’ll be facing a completely different team to the one they beat 1-0 at the King Power Stadium last month.

‘It’s just another game to us. I don’t think we can take too much from how we beat them at our place. We obviously did well to get the result, but we’re playing in their back garden now and they don’t want to lose there,’ Albrighton told the Leicester City website.

‘They’ll want to win, so it’s a massive game for them. We’ve put ourselves in a position where we can go there and enjoy our football and hopefully come away with some points.

‘With Copenhagen, they’ll be looking to go out and win the game so it’s going to be difficult, but we’re up for the fight.’

The match at Parken Stadium kicks off at 21:45.
