Brendan Rodgers's team is in 10th place in the standings with 25 points. Leicester City has seven victories, four draws, and seven defeats after 18 rounds. The team’s schedule has been hit hard by the coronavirus. The Foxes had to play against Norwich at home on 1 January and versus Everton away on 11 January, but both games were rescheduled to reserve dates. Leicester played its last Premier League game on 28 December and sensationally beat Liverpool (1-0). The only official match in 2022 was held in the 1/32 finals of the FA Cup. On January 8, the Foxes hammered Watford at home (4-1) and made it to the next round, where they will face Nottingham Forest away.
The teams sorted out their relationship on September 25 in the match of the 6th round in Leicester. That game ended in a 2-2 draw, although the Foxes were close to defeat. Jamie Vardy's late goal saved the hosts from losing. The teams approached the upcoming game in poor condition. Burnley still cannot get out of the crisis, and the departure of Cornet for the African Cup of Nations and the sale of Wood weakened the attack of the Clarets. Leicester found itself in a difficult situation caused by numerous personnel losses. However, the Foxes can rely on permanent goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel and a strong midfield led by Youri Tielemans. They are not the clear favorites of the upcoming match, but they are capable of gaining at least a draw. Burnley looks extremely weak at home in the Premier League. In seven matches at Turf Moor, the Clarets scored only seven points, limiting themselves to one victory over Brentford (3-1).
Prediction for the match: Leicester to win with 0.0 handicap
