Burnley welcomes Leicester to Turf Moor for this Premiership encounter. The hosts are in 18th position with 21 points while the visitors are in 13th position with 27 points. Burnley looked set to be relegated as they were rooted to the bottom of the table for a long time but a recent resurgence has given them hope of survival. Burnley are now just a point from safety and have played two fewer games than the two teams below them. They are unbeaten in their last three matches and have only lost one of their last seven league matches. Burnley’s only loss during this period was a 1-0 home defeat to title chasing Liverpool. Their win in their last home match against Tottenham was only their second home victory this season in 13 matches. They have only won three of their last 13 matches against Leicester with all three wins coming at home.

Leicester are going through a horror run of results that have seen them without a win in their last five league matches. During this period they were also dumped out of the FA Cup by Championship side Nottingham. They have only won two of their last ten league matches which has seen them drop down to 18TH position. Their slump has been so severe that they are now only six points above the relegation zone but they do have a game in hand. Leicester have lost their last four away matches in the league.Leicester did manage to stop the run of away losses when they beat Randers in a Europa League match during the week.
