The visiting Clarets have just one point and three goals through five matches, leaving them 19th on the table following a very tricky run of fixtures.

Prediction
Something’s gotta give here, and Maxwell Cornet and Chris Wood both seem due to deliver goals for Burnley. Their status as visitors against a Leicester side stung by officiating in a loss to Brighton could betray hopes of a win. Leicester City 1-1 Burnley.
