Team News: Hamza Choudhury handed start as Leicester City visit Burnley

Choudhury handed start against Burnley

Hamza Choudhury has been handed his full Premier League debut as Leicester City visit Burnley this afternoon.

The 20-year-old's inclusion marks three changes from Claude Puel as he tries to bounce back from last week's home defeat to Newcastle United.

Shinji Okazaki and Demarai Gray are the other players to come in, replacing Marc Albrighton, Fousseni Diabate and Vicente Iborra, who is not expected to be seen again this season due to a hamstring injury.

For the hosts, Sean Dyche opts for one change from the 2-1 win over Watford as Johann Berg Gudmundsson replaces Georges-Kevin Nkoudou on the left wing following six weeks out.

Burnley: Pope; Lowton, Long, Tarkowski, Ward; Gudmundsson, Cork, Westwood, Lennon; Barnes, Wood Subs: Heaton, Taylor, Marney, Vokes, Hendrick, Wells, Bardsley

Leicester City: Schmeichel; Simpson, Morgan, Maguire, Chilwell; Gray, Silva, Choudhury, Mahrez; Okazaki; Vardy Subs: Hamer, Dragovic, Fuchs, Albrighton, Barnes, Diabate, Iheanacho
