    That was nice from Vicente Iborra. He takes the ball down nicely and plays it out wide. Leicester are now in Burnley's half.

    Jamie Vardy has just had his first touch of the game. He could score his 50th Premier League goal today.

    But it's Burnley who have got all the possession at the moment.

    Some good early pressure from Burnley and they force Leicester to kick the ball off the sideline.

    They're playing in white today and with the foggy mist growing across the pitch, we may lose sight of them by half-time.

    "It was a fantastic game for us. It was promising to see my players playing with this quality. It is very interesting and promising for the future."

    Those were the thoughts of Leicester boss Claude Puel following his side's 2-1 win over Tottenham.

    Will he be singing their praises later today?

    Leicester v Burnley (15:00 GMT)

    Burnley picked up their fourth away win of the season on Wednesday, their highest tally in a Premier League campaign.

    It was only the second time Burnley have won successive away games in the Premier League, last doing so in May 2015.

    Robbie Brady scored his first Premier League goal since February against Bournemouth, ending a run of 25 games in the competition without one.

    Sean Dyche was pretty happy on Wednesday but can you blame him? Here's his full post-match interview.

    Burnley are currently just three points off a Champions League spot! Madness.

    Leicester, who struggled at the start of the season, are slowly making their way back up the table and are now sitting in ninth place going into the match.

    Will Burnley end the day ahead of Liverpool and level with Arsenal? After Leicester won the Premier League, anything is possible...

  11. History in the makingpublished at 14:43 Greenwich Mean Time 2 December 2017

    Leicester v Burnley (15:00 GMT)

    Jamie Vardy is the complete player, according to Leicester boss Claude Puel.

    The England forward is one strike away from 50 Premier League goals and is set to become the first Leicester player to reach half a century of goals in the top flight.

    "I think he is the complete player, for me," Puel said. "He can play with a team with possession and an attacking team. That is the complete player.

    "We saw, for example, Harry Kane on Tuesday and they are two fantastic players - with two feet - different but they can play together.

    "But of course, the player can continue to improve until the end of his career."

    What a job Sean Dyche has been doing, especially with the budget he has been given at Burnley. They are playing so well in the Premier League.

    Leicester v Burnley (15:00 GMT)

    Leicester moved into the top half of the table with their 2-1 victory over Tottenham at the King Power Stadium on Tuesday.

    Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez were on the score-sheet but Leicester rode their luck against an under-performing Spurs side.

    Referee Anthony Taylor waved away a strong injury-time penalty claim as Danny Rose went down under Wilfred Ndidi's challenge - but in the end, Leicester emerged with all three points from only 37% possession.

    Will that have given the Foxes confidence ahead of today's match against Burnley?

  14. Burnley in dreamlandpublished at 14:35 Greenwich Mean Time 2 December 2017

    Leicester v Burnley (15:00 GMT)

    Burnley's impressive Premier League season continued as they climbed to sixth in the Premier League table with a 2-1 victory over Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium on Wednesday.

    Chris Wood's first-half tap in set Sean Dyche's side on their way to a fourth victory in five league games.

    Robbie Brady then added a second from a ruthless counter-attacking move.

    Having avoided the drop with a 16th-placed finish on their return to the Premier League last season, Dyche would surely have been pinching himself at the suggestion the Clarets would be flirting with a European spot heading into Christmas.

    But it was an assured performance at either end of the pitch from Burnley, denying Bournemouth a shot on target until Joshua King's consolation 11 minutes from time.
