2 Boxing Day Premier League games off due to COVID outbreaks

Coronavirus outbreaks at Leeds and Watford have led to two Premier League matches scheduled for Sunday being postponed
DECEMBER 23, 2021 Associated Press
Jamie Vardy - Plays through tight hamstring Vardy played through a tight hamstring late in Wednesday's Cup loss against Liverpool, confirmed manager Brendan Rodgers.
Impact This isn't a positive update on Vardy and it appears he probably won't be starting two matches in three days starting with Boxing Day. Even then, he's started one of the last three league matches, meaning more time for Patson Daka and Kelechi Iheanacho is likely.

Ademola Lookman - Makes bench in Cup match Lookman stayed on the bench in Wednesday's Cup match against Liverpool.
Impact Lookman is back from COVID-19 but wasn't asked to play Wednesday, possibly because of a lack of fitness. Prior to catching the virus, he had racked up six-straight starts, which means there's a good chance he'll be back in the XI as soon as Boxing Day against Manchester City.

Ayoze Perez - Stays on bench in Cup match Perez stayed on the bench in Wednesday's Cup match against Liverpool.
Impact Perez was back in the squad Wednesday after missing Leicester's last two matches because of COVID-19. Unfortunately for him, he wasn't even used, which isn't a good sign for future playing time. His best chance of getting a start will come in this upcoming stretch of three matches in seven days.

Jannik Vestergaard - Gets minutes in Cup match Vestergaard (COVID-19) played 30 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's Cup match against Liverpool.
Impact Vestergaard is healthy again and was forced onto the pitch because of another injury to Caglar Soyuncu on Wednesday. While Vestergaard hasn't started since Oct. 3 in league play, there's a chance that changes in upcoming matches, as Leicester don't have a ton of options at center-back.

Caglar Soyuncu - Starts Wednesday, leaves injured Soyuncu was forced off in the 60th minute of Wednesday's Cup match against Liverpool with a tight hamstring.
Impact Unfortunately, this hamstring issue is related to the prior one for Soyuncu and it's what was bugging him last week. With only a few days until the Boxing Day fixture, Soyuncu is at jeopardy of missing at least one match, depending on the severity, meaning a return to the XI for Jannik Vestergaard is possible.
