Our next game is Burnley away after a disappointing home loss to Southampton, who we beat 9-0 in a record breaking win back in October.

We have played Burnley 9 times in the Premier League, winning 5, drawing 2 and losing only 2.
Last time we played them, we won 2-1 at home, and this is the second time playing them this season.
Will we do the double against them??

Burnley are on poor form, as they have lost 4 of thier previous 5 games.
Leicester’s form has been mixed, winning only 2 out of the last 5, losing to two of the top teams in the Premier League, Man City and Liverpool!

As Leicester sit comfortable in 3rd place, and Burnley sitting in the lower half of the table, in 15th place

Burnley are on the longest current run of Premier League matches without a draw, after winning five and losing 10 of their last 15 contests. At Turf Moor, they have gone 18 league matches without a draw. 

Leicester are looking to record a league double over Burnley for the first time since the 2012/13 season in the Championship, and a third straight league win against them for the first time since September 1906. 

Brendan Rodgers’ side have won seven Premier League away matches this season. They have only won more in two previous top-flight campaigns; nine in 1965/66 and 11 in 2015/16. 

Only Trent Alexander-Arnold, with 27, has created more chances from set-plays than Leicester’s James Maddison this season, with 25. But Burnley have conceded fewer goals from set-pieces than any other Premier League side this season, with two, excluding penalties.
