Burnley manager Sean Dyche is refusing to get carried away with the prospect of featuring in Europe next season despite seeing his side take a significant step towards qualifying for the Europa League with victory over Leicester City. Chris Wood scored against his former club while Kevin Long headed a second as the Clarets made it a five straight league wins.

Dyche's side are seventh in the Premier League, which will be enough to qualify for the Europa League unless Southampton win the FA Cup. "Our story is still about getting as many points as we can get," said Dyche.

On potentially qualifying for the Europa League, he added: "In five and a half years there has been a lot of work done here. We have had some tough times and some very good times. Who knows what it will bring but we will just wait and see."

Leicester wasted several chances before Jamie Vardy's powerful finish reduced the deficit, but Burnley hung on to open up a nine point lead on their eighth-placed opponents with five games to play.

Foxes boss Claude Puel said afterwards that his side's chances of qualifying for the Europa League were all but over. "I think so, yes," said the Frenchman. "Of course there are games remaining but they [Burnley] now have a lot of chances."
