Burnley striker Chris Wood not good ahead of Chelsea clash
Burnley striker Chris Wood is a doubt for the game with Chelsea due to a hamstring problem.
Midfielder Danny Drinkwater is ineligible to face his parent club and winger Johann Berg Gudmundsson will not be available due to a hamstring injury.
Clarets boss Sean Dyche expects midfielder Jack Cork to return after missing two games with a shoulder issue and striker Ashley Barnes should be fit after nursing a groin problem.
Chelsea will be without midfield duo N’Golo Kante and Ross Barkley.
Kante has yet to recover from a groin problem and Barkley turned his ankle against Newcastle last weekend.
Defenders Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger are also not ready to return.
Burnley provisional squad: Pope, Hart, Lowton, Taylor, Tarkowski, Mee, Gibson, Pieters, Bardsley, Long, Cork, McNeil, Brady, Hendrick, Westwood, Lennon, Wood, Barnes, Rodriguez, Vydra, Peacock-Farrell.

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
