Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this game is the existence of few goals. Looking at the two teams it is possible to verify solid defensive sectors, and for this reason, the game tends to be very closed and with few chances of goals. Despite this, we believe that Leicester City will dominate ball and attack in a more organized way, while Burnley should create its chances through counterattacks. Thus, we think it is a good option to risk in favor of the "Under 2.5 Goals" market in this game.

Preview
Burnley and Leicester City meet at Turf Moor, in a match for the 29th round of the Premier League. Leicester City got a home win by (4‑2), in the last league head‑to‑head, played in 20‑09‑2020. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 3 wins and 1 loss in the last 4 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 19‑01‑2020, in a match for the Premier League, Burnley won by (2‑1). The goals of the match were scored by A. Westwood (79' ) and C. Wood (56' ), for Burnley, and by H. Barnes (33' ), for Leicester City. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Burnley

The home team is currently in the 15th position of the league, with 28 points won, after 7 wins, 7 draws and 12 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against West Bromwich Albion, by (0‑0). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Tottenham Hotspur, by (4‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 13 goals scored and 20 conceded; against 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 11 goals scored and 19 conceded. In the last 10 home league matches Burnley has a record of 4 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 16 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. 10 of their last 13 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals, so there is a tendency for few goals in their home matches. In 26 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 14 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 13 home matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 4 of their 10 goals between minutes (46'‑60').

Burnley comes to this match with a 4-0 defeat at Tottenham, registering in this way the third straight game without losing in this Premier League. However, it is important to convey that the home team has not lost three games at home. Now in this game against Leicester, we will most likely find out a team lined up in 4-4-2, with Matej Vydra and Jay Rodríguez as the most advanced men. Despite having a solid defensive sector, the home team has great flaws in maintaining ball possession and finishing. For this game manager Sean Dyche cannot count on Gudmundsson, Ashley Barnes, Robert Brady and Erik Pieters, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Nick Pope, Matthew Lowton, James Tarkowski, Ben Mee, Charlie Taylor, Jack Cork, Dwight McNeil, Ashley Westwood, Josh Brownhill, Matěj Vydra, Chris Wood.
Coach: S. Dyche.

Analysis Leicester

The away team is currently in the 3rd position of the league, with 49 points won, after 15 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Aston Villa, by (1‑2). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Arsenal, by (1‑3). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 26 goals scored and 14 conceded; against 9 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses at their stadium, with 26 goals scored and 15 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Leicester City has a record of 6 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss, so they have won 21 points out of 30 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t lost any of the last 8 away matches. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (5 out of 13 matches). Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 26 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 11 times and have only turned the score around in 3.

Leicester comes to this game with a 1-3 home loss to Arsenal, thus registering the second defeat in official matches: the only goal of the match was signed by Youri Tielemans. Note that the foxes had lost (0-2) against Slavia Praga, in a game that dictated the elimination of the Europa League. In this match against Burnley, manager Brendan Rodgers should favor a more direct style and the search for spaces in the aisles. Striker Jamie Vardy is the team's scorer, with 12 goals scored. For this game the coach cannot count on James Maddison, Ayoze Perez, James Justin, Wesley Fofana, Wes Morgan and Dennis Praet, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Kasper Schmeichel, Çağlar Söyüncü, Timothy Castagne, Ricardo Pereira, Youri Tielemans, Daniel Amartey, Nampalys Mendy, Hamza Choudhury, Wilfred Ndidi, Jamie Vardy, Kelechi Iheanacho.
Coach: B. Rodgers.
