Team News

Burnley
Blackburn
  • Scott Parker could hand a league debut to former Manchester United midfielder Hannibal.
  • Luca Koleosho and Josh Cullen are both doubtful after missing the Carabao Cup game against Wolves.
  • New signing Josh Laurent could feature on the bench after making the move from Championship rivals Stoke.
  • Striker Makhtar Gueye scored against Blackpool in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night and could start up top on Saturday.
  • Harry Leonard and Scott Wharton have both been ruled out of the trip to Turf Moor.

Prediction

  • Burnley scored nine goals across their first two league games, but the mood in the Clarets' camp has rapidly deteriorated since then. Defeats in the league against Sunderland and then against Wolves in the Carabao Cup have been poorly received, while a host of key outgoings have sparked concerns about squad depth.
  • In contrast to their hosts, Blackburn were tipped as potential relegation candidates heading into the season, but John Eustace's men are riding the crest of a wave heading into gameweek four. Rovers scored late to beat Oxford United last weekend, leaving them third in the standings with seven points from three league games.
