Team News

Burnley
Stoke
  • Scott Parker could drop Zian Flemming into an attacking midfield role here with Lyle Foster returning up top.
  • Winger Jeremy Sarmiento returned in time to face Middlesbrough on Sunday, but Burnely will be without five first-team players.
  • Interim boss Ryan Shawcross could make two changes here with Enda Stevens and Sam Gallagher stepping into the starting XI.
  • Ben Pearson, Million Manhoef and Jordan Thompson are all confirmed absentees for Stoke.

Prediction

  • Burnley's immense defence turned up again on Sunday as the Clarets squeezed out a goalless draw from their contest with Middlesbrough.
  • Scott Parker's men are unbeaten in their last 11 Championship matches but lost ground to new league leaders Leeds at the weekend.
  • Ryan Shawcross was in the Stoke dugout on Sunday after the board opted to sack Narcis Pelach following a dismal run of form, and his presence coincided with an impressive 1-0 win against Sunderland, thanks to a late Tom Cannon goal.
  • That victory ended a nine-match winless streak and moved the Potters four points clear of the relegation zone.
