Leicester City complete a second-half comeback to beat Burnley by two goals to one at the King Power Stadium.

Leicester City came from behind against Burnley tonight to maintain their 100% home record in the Championship.

Dean Marney hammered home from Martin Paterson's cutback to give Burnley the lead after just 10 minutes.

That left Nigel Pearson's side behind at the break, but they had completed before the hour mark.

David Nugent equalised for Leicester just three minutes into the second half, before Jamie Vardy smashed the Foxes into the lead.

Sam Vokes hit the post late on for Burnley, but that was the closest they came to finding an equaliser.

The win is Leicester's third in the league this season and moves them into the top half after six matches.
