Jamie Vardy scored twice from the penalty spot as the Foxes beat West Bromwich Albion 3-0 in their opener last weekend, but Burnley were due to face Manchester United, with the game postponed due to the Red Devils’ European exploits at the end of last season.
Both teams have played once though, with Sean Dyche’s side in action in midweek against Sheffield United in the League Cup, winning 5-4 on penalties after a 1-1 draw.
Brendan Rodgers’s team have had a week off, as they don’t enter the competition until the third round.
