United in sorrow following the death of owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, grief-stricken Leicester will make an emotional return to action at Cardiff on Saturday.
Thai billionaire Vichai was among five people killed when his helicopter crashed outside Leicester's King Power Stadium following last Saturday's match against West Ham.
The tragedy rocked the football world, with Leicester's stunned players joining mourners who turned the King Power into a shrine with flowers and tributes to the charismatic Vichai.
With his vast investment and boundless enthusiasm, Vichai was the inspiration for Leicester's incredible Premier League title triumph as 5,000-1 outsiders in 2016.
While results on the pitch pale in comparison to the trauma of Vichai's death, Claude Puel's side will play this weekend for the first time since the crash.
Tuesday's League Cup home game against Southampton came too soon for Leicester, who postponed the tie to allow more time for the city to come to terms with the accident.

A minute's silence will be observed before kick-off at the Cardiff City Stadium and players will wear black armbands in Vichai's honour.
"Playing football has not been on our minds this last week but for this weekend and all matches after we will play to honour and remember a man who did so much for our club," Puel said.
"The result is not important, but our desire to give our best to honour our chairman, that is the most important thing."
"You saw him in the stands, always with his scarf on, and it's amazing the difference he made and how he was so respected by the fans."
