Leicester manager Claude Puel warns his players of underestimating Burnley

Claude Puel has warned Leicester they face another huge challenge when Burnley visit the King Power Stadium on Saturday.

Leicester moved up to ninth place in the Premier League in midweek following a 2-1 home victory over Tottenham, thanks to goals from Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez.

Puel's Foxes also face Newcastle, Southampton and Crystal Palace before Christmas with the Frenchman having won two of his five games in charge.

But after the impressive triumph over Spurs, Puel told his players there is no room for complacency.

He said: "Be careful about this. If we watch Burnley, the table doesn't lie. I think they are sixth, it is a fantastic season for them. They have confidence and are a strong team.

"They are not just physical, they start with the ball and try to play good football and have had good results away from home. It's a big challenge for us but also for them.

"Southampton also deserved another result (against Manchester City), every game is difficult in the Premier League and the quality on the pitch of Burnley will be a strong challenge for us.

"Now we are ninth but it's not important for the moment. I don't know where we can finish, the most important thing is to continue the work.

"Tottenham was one game and now is the time to repeat the performance and we need to work together with the same attitude and we will see for the future. It was a good win, no other thing."

Puel was asked if he knew his best starting team, after such a short stint in charge, and said: "I have some idea of course. [But] it is not a good idea to just think about 11 players because now we have to play every three days.

"It's a lot of games, if we have just 11 players it is not possible to continue this work, to stay fresh."
