Leicester City are aiming to build on their victory at Cardiff City, while Burnley are seeking to stop a three-match losing run.

Team news

Did you know?

Leicester are the only side to have scored in all of their 11 Premier League matches so far this season. It is only the second time they have achieved that feat, after 2015/16 when they won the title.

Claude Puel’s side hope to stop conceding the opening goal in their PL home matches. They have done so in their last four top-flight fixtures at King Power Stadium, winning one, drawing one and losing two.

Since the start of last season only Olivier Giroud, with six, has scored more PL goals as a substitute than Burnley’s Chris Wood, with five.

Sean Dyche has a chance to secure his first league win at King Power Stadium at the sixth attempt, having taken charge there once with Watford and four times with Burnley.
