If anything seriously thinks Burnley will finish top 6 I'll happily take their money. 

That is also exactly what they said about us 2 seasons ago.

[Chester Dontlie]

Nothing against them but my thoughts are they're gonna get banged two nil. Vince and Wilf to score

[Bob Weasel Fox]

Will be a tough tough game

 

winnable though

 

 Leicester win 2-1

[UPinCarolina]

1-0 to LCFC with a frustrating number of near misses and blown chances.

[SpacedX]

I'll guarantee three things.

 

1/ We won't lose this

2/ That my stream will fail seconds before the first goal - or during a goal mouth scramble.

3/ That I will never ever feel the remotest compulsion to visit Turd Moor again.

Easy win, 3-0.

 

We'll swat them away like a fly, regardless of their position in the table. 

 

They'll tumble a lot lower than this peak in their club's history right now.

You do realise that they won the old 1st Division twice, 1921 and 1960? So not their peak at the moment.

Ugh that old chestnut  Burnley aren’t Leicester either.

[ARTY_FOX]

I hope they do make it in the top 4 at spurs and Liverpools expense to be fair, look the most likely to do it and good luck to them. Just not tomorrow. Hopefully Vardy and mahrez are going to hit some top form 

[Deano79]

2-0. Vardy Simpson

It will be a minor miracle if that happens he’s only scored once in 287 league appearances 

[FoxesDeb]

Iborra will score, in recognition of me getting his shirt for my birthday this week. It is written

It’s the Christmas season; anything can happen! 

 

 

[Guest Dirkster the Fox]

 it seems everyone deep down (faux hate included) is rather papping themselves for tomorrow.

 

I'll be there and hopefully to see a city win, but I'm dam certain its going to be one of our toughest games at home this season........

[FoyleFox]

No hope of this going well, having spent a fortune and embarked on the 850 mile round trip I'm going. So no hope of goals or us winning, sorry 

[I blame Wellens]

Just looking forward to watching Iborra playing. Was an absulute privilege to watch him on Tuesday night. One word... majestic.

He was sensational v Spurs. When he gets the ball l breathe much easier as he never seems to give it away ! 

[whoareyaaa]

5-1 Mahrez and Vardy back at it, the beautiful man iborra to start the scoring

[Devonfox1884]

Biggest game of the season so far for me. Could be the catalyst for us to push on over Christmas and get up to 7th for the new year.

 

2-0 (Vardy, Ndidi)

[FoxonMaui]

It’s going to be interesting to see how we handle this game. Dyche has his players working superbly as a unit. If you watch them closely they defend quite similarily to how we did in 2015/2016. They are very compact and funnel opponents out wide well. Cork and Brady give them good balance in midfield. Think they will sit deep and clog the passing lanes early to frustrate us. Iborra’s going to be important as we will need him to bring a bit of patience to our build up play. If we drop our intensity from the Spurs game and go behind to this lot it could be a long frustrating afternoon. I think we could see Slimani or Nacho or both of them in the second half if we get bogged down trying to open them up. One things for sure is we will not see their midfielders ambling back when we are on the break like Dembele when Riyad scored against the spuds.

To me this result will be a better measure of how Good a fit Puel is for us going forward. I really like what he has done so far and player reactions seem to show he is well liked. Would not be surprised if Slim and Nacho have a big say in how this one turns out. I think we will get an ‘ugly ‘ win.

Im hoping for a win today but id love to see a team like Burnley pushing for a top 6 finish at the end of the season, going on to show that you dont need to spend 100s of millions to get there. People will underestimate them because theyre only Burnley just like they did us. Good luck to them (after today).
