The Clarets return from a rare three-week break to take on the Seagulls at Turf Moor, a place where they haven’t won since October.

While Josh Cullen is a long-term absentee with an ACL injury, Hannibal now joins him on the sidelines after injuring his hamstring against Fulham before the break.

With that in mind, here’s how we think the Clarets will line up:
