Team News: Islam Slimani, Jamie Vardy lead Leicester City line against Burnley

Leicester City boss Claudio Ranieri opts for a front pairing of Islam Slimani and Jamie Vardy as the Foxes face visitors Burnley in the Premier League.

Leicester City boss Claudio Ranieri has opted for a front pairing of Islam Slimani and Jamie Vardy as the Foxes face visitors Burnley in the Premier League this afternoon.

The home side's strikers will be backed by a four-man midfield, made up from Danny Drinkwater and Daniel Amartey in the centre, while Riyad Mahrez and Mark Albrighton are to provide pace down the flanks.

As for the visitors, Burnley boss Sean Dyche has decided to leave Sam Vokes on the bench, meaning that Andre Gray will feature as the club's main attacking presence.

The away side will be driven by a midfield that includes new signing Steven Defour, as well as club-record purchase Jeff Hendrick, who will be making his full debut for the Clarets.

Leicester City: Zieler; Simpson, Huth, Morgan, Fuchs; Mahrez, Drinkwater, Amartey, Albrighton; Slimani, Vardy
Subs: Hernandez, Musa, King, Hamer, Okazaki, Gray, Ulloa
