The Premier League returns to the fold with another round of important fixtures this weekend as Burnley lock horns with Brendan Rodgers' Leicester City side at Turf Moor on Saturday.
Burnley vs Leicester City Preview
Burnley are currently in 18th place in the Premier League standings and will likely face an intense relegation battle this season. The home side crashed out of the FA Cup at the hands of Huddersfield this week and cannot afford another debacle in this fixture.
Leicester City have also failed to meet expectations in the Premier League so far and are in 10th place in the league table at the moment. The Foxes thrashed Watford by a comprehensive 4-1 margin in their previous game and will be confident ahead of this match.
