Preview: Leicester City vs. Burnley

Leicester vs. Burnley

Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson will be without the services of Welsh international Andy King for tomorrow night's Championship encounter against Burnley tomorrow night.

The midfielder damaged his hamstring during Sunday's 2-1 loss to Midlands rivals Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Pearson is expected to pick Matt James to fill the void, although Neil Danns and Anthony Knockaert are both said to be in contention.

The Foxes have played two matches at the King Power Stadium so far this season, winning both.

Meanwhile, the visiting Clarets have lost their two fixtures on the road.

However, in Charlie Austin they have striker that already has seven goals to his name in all competitions.

Recent form:

Leicester: LWLLW Burnley: WLLLW

Possible lineups:

Leicester: Schmeichel; De Laet, Morgan, Moore, Konchesky; Marshall, Drinkwater, James, Knockaert; Nugent, Waghorn

Burnley: Grant; Trippier, Duff, Shackell, Mills; McCann, Wallace, Marney, Stanislas; Vokes, Austin

Sports Mole says: 1-1
