Vincent Kompany’s men have lost all five of their home games so far this term, albeit they’ve come against some of the division’s best sides.
Following a run of four straight defeats in all competitions, the Clarets will be desperate to get back to winning ways in front of their home supporters.
Kompany has confirmed Foster will miss out through illness once again, while Josh Cullen is also suspended.
On a more positive note, Jordan Beyer is back in contention after missing the last month with a knee problem.
With that in mind, here’s how we think the Clarets could line up:
1. GK - James Trafford

2. RB - Connor Roberts
Vitinho stood in for him following his suspension and got the nod in the cup, but I'd expect Roberts to come back in for the league. Photo: Marc Atkins
3. CB - Jordan Beyer

4. CB - Ameen Al-Dakhil
If Beyer does return, it's likely to be a toss up between Al-Dakhil and Dara O'Shea for the other centre-back spot. Photo: Eddie Keogh
