Burnley vs Leicester City Match Analysis and Prediction

Two sides contend on returning to winning ways in the Premier League lock horns in the midweek rescheduled fixtures as Burnley welcome home Leicester City. The match schedules for Wednesday at Turf Moor with kickoff at 9 pm.

The Clarets suffered a 4-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspurs at the weekend and are now winless in three league outings. Leicester City lost out to Arsenal 3-1, marking back-to-back defeats across all competitions.

Leicester City’s campaign is at risk with 12 matches left in the tank, especially after back to back to losses to Arsenal and Slavia Prague last week. The Foxes fell for a surprise in the Europa last 32 ties at Slavia Prague’s hands, going down 2-0 on home soil in the second leg. It followed with a 3-1 thrashing by Arsenal.

It seems lack of squad rotation is causing a lot of harm for Brendan Rodgers, especially on a title bid race. Youri Tieleman’s started with a well-struck goal in the early minutes to get the Foxes going. However, a header by David Luiz got the game back in hand. It followed with a penalty by Alexander Lacazette and Nicolas Pepe converting.

It seems a challenging task for Sean Dyche to get back on his feet after goalless draws against Fulham and West Brom with a heavy defeat by Tottenham.
