Leicester City Preview – Can Leicester win back-to-back?
A resounding 3-0 win away from home at west midlands rivals, West Brom, in last weekend’s season-opener would have been the perfect tonic for this Leicester City outfit who squandered the lucrative opportunity of Champions League football at the end of last season.
From being certainties of a top four finish in the English top flight, The Foxes managed to pick up just two wins out of their final nine matches of the season and ended up in a disappointing 5th place and having to make do with a place in the Europa League.
However, last weekend’s win against The Baggies would have restored some much-needed confidence and belief and having lost just twice in their last eight matches at home (to both Manchester clubs), Leicester City are still a hard team to beat at their King Power Stadium.
Burnley Preview – Can Burnley improve on mid-table?
Burnley continue to punch above their weight in the Premier League in terms of financial clout which is testament to manager, Sean Dyche, and his players as they finished last season in the safety of mid-table in 10th place, after losing just two of their final 16 matches of the campaign.
The visitors also lost just one of their final eight matches on their travels which came in the shape of a 5-0 loss at Manchester City, but notable wins at Manchester United, Southampton and Crystal Palace along with a point at Liverpool is nothing to sneeze at.
However, Burnley have found it difficult to beat Leicester City away from home for some time and with an increasing injury list which includes the services of Mee, Cork, Gudmundsson and Barnes, along with defender Tarkowski being rated as doubtful, The Clarets may struggle in the east midlands again this Sunday.
