Howe himself will feel the need for victory at the Walkers, where no Burnley side has ever lost. But Eddie Howe's Burnley are themselves also chasing a play-off spot, and find themselves six points off Reading with a game in hand.
After Reading's slim victory over Preston on Tuesday night the Foxes are now seven points adrift of the top six, and must claim all three points against the Clarets if they are to have any hope of making a push for the Premier League. Leicester look for a final ace in the pack as they prepare for their must-win clash against Burnley at the Walkers Stadium.
