Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers says there'll be no underestimating Europa Conference League clash with Rennes.

The Foxes take a 2-0 lead into the second leg of their last-16 with Rennes tomorrow.

Rodgers said they know their trip to France is "going to be different".

"You need to defend a little bit more away from home," he said.

"But collectively it's about pressing at the right moment, defending the box and set pieces, and taking the responsibility to defend."

Rodgers also confirmed Danny Ward is out for "a number of weeks" after the Wales goalkeeper underwent knee surgery.

Ward has featured only in domestic cup competitions for Leicester City this season.

"It's really unfortunate," Rodgers said of Ward's need for surgery. "He has had the injury for a while and it was a clean up operation on his meniscus.

"He will be back towards the end of the season."
