What is the team news?
Burnley will be hoping England keeper Nick Pope can recover from an ankle injury but backup Will Norris is waiting in the wings if necessary.
Dwight McNeil could also come back from a groin problem but Charlie Taylor, Jay Rodriguez and Kevin Long are set to remain out.
According to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Paul Pogba, Luke Shaw and Victor Lindelof were all injured rather than rested for the 1-0 win over Watford and it remains to be seen whether they’ll return.
Lindelof’s injury in particular could lead to concerns in defence as Eric Bailly is suffered a neck injury when he collided with Dean Henderson against the Hornets and faces a battle to prove his fitness for this one.
But in better news Edinson Cavani is back from his three-game ban.
