League One leaders Leicester City will be without three key players for the top-of-the-table clash against Peterborough at London Road.On-loan midfielder Tom Cleverley has returned to Manchester United after suffering a dislocated shoulder in the Foxes' 1-1 home draw against Colchester last week.Another midfielder, Andy King, is also unavailable as he is on international duty with the Wales Under-21 squad, while striker Steve Howard completes a two-match suspension.But Sweden Under-17 international midfielder Astrit Ajdarevic could be included in Nigel Pearson's squad after joining on loan from Liverpool for the remainder of the campaign.Leicester's charge towards the title has started to stutter recently after just three wins in their last 10 games.Second-placed Peterborough have narrowed the gap and have the chance to go within four points of the Foxes when the two sides meet in Saturday's 12pm kick-off.
