Its Turf Moors First game for one day short of a month following Chelsea and Liverpool away. Plus the England world cup qualifying game against Croatia. Burnley have no new injuries but last seasons skipper Stephen Caldwell is still not fully fit. I can see Chris Eagles getting a start in this game and also David Nugent.
It will be hard to drop Martin Paterson who has been superb over the last few games but one worrying factor is his inability to convert chances so far this season. Steve Bruce has been keeping Kenwyne Jones on the bench and Burnley will be hoping that remains the case as for me he is there most feared striker. But Darren Bent is also on fire so it will take a good performance from Bikey and Carlise to keep the Turf Moor clean sheet record in tact.
Burnley will go into this with no fear but this is a potential banana skin and it will take nothing less than 100% for us to get anything from this game.
David Nugent is worth a punt for first goal he would love to prove the doubters wrong.
