Burnley Preview – Can Burnley avoid fifth straight defeat?
The third round of the FA Cup provided Burnley with some respite from the rigours of the Premier League as The Clarets registered a relatively comfortable 4-2 home win against League One outfit, Peterborough United, but aside from that cup win, there’s been very little for Sean Dyche’s men to get excited about.
Indeed, Burnley return to top flight action on Sunday afternoon seeking to avoid a fifth straight defeat in the Premier League when they play host to high-flying Leicester City at Turf Moor, following a spate of losses which has left the hosts in a disappointing 15th place.
Losses to Everton, Manchester United, Aston Villa and Chelsea have done a lot of damage in recent weeks, while Turf Moor can no longer be considered Burnley’s fortress as The Clarets have lost 4 of their last 5 matches there.
A home record of 5-0-6 14/17 underlines the problems that Burnley have had in achieving any sort of consistent results at home this season.
Leicester City Preview – Can Leicester take advantage?
Leicester City’s results have taken a turn for the worse in recent times too as The Foxes have managed to register just 2 wins out of their last 6 matches which were achieved in back-to-back wins against West Ham and Newcastle United, but too many defeats in recent times have overshadowed these wins.
3 defeats out of their last 5 matches overall have seen Leicester City slump to losses against Manchester City, Liverpool and Southampton, the latter being a particularly disappointing 2-1 defeat on home turf at their King Power Stadium.
However, being away from home for this Sunday’s tussle at Burnley might just suit The Foxes as Brendan Rodgers’s side have won 6 of their last 7 matches on the road amidst an overall solid away record of 7-1-3 27/10 with the visitors scoring 23 goals and conceding just 5 in reply during this purple patch of form.
