Both Leicester City and Burnley returned to winning ways in the League Cup in midweek and will be hoping to extend the same to their Premier League runs. The two face off at the King Power Stadium with hosts Leicester placed 12th on six points and Burnley 19th on one point. Leicester scored two second half goals against Millwall in the League Cup to secure a fourth round place. Now they embark on their search for a third win in the league, after the 2-1 loss to Brighton last time out. The Foxes have failed to score in just one of their seven matches this season, the 1-0 loss to Manchester City, while they have managed two goals in three of their last five matches. They head to this game having lost two straight league matches and three in the last four. They haven’t also kept a clean sheet in their last four league matches, though they’ve failed to score in just one of five. Leicester go to this game with three wins in their last five matches against Burnley.

Burnley are in search of their first win of the season. They head to this game having registered a 4-1 win over Rochdale in the League Cup. The Clarets had to come from behind in the game and Jay Rodriguez scored all four goals for Burnley. The goal they conceded means Burnley have now failed to keep a clean sheet in four straight games. They have also failed to score in two of their last five matches. The visitors go to this game winless in their last eight league games and their only win in 10 league matches was against relegated Fulham last season. Sean Dyche’s team has no clean sheet in the league this season and has conceded two or more goals in three of their last five matches. Both teams have scored in three of Burnley’s last five league games but they head here with three straight away losses in the league.
