Off the back of their East Lancashire stalemate against Blackburn Rovers, Scott Parker’s side take a brief break before they return to action with a tasty-looking trip to Elland Road to face Leeds United on Saturday, September 14.
Saying that, there are six players who won’t get the luxury of a break as they’re jetting off around the globe to take part in various international encounters.
That number would have been greater, but Manuel Benson (Angola), Josh Cullen (Republic of Ireland) and Maxime Esteve (France Under-21s) all miss out through injury.
Summer signing Hannibal, meanwhile, has not been named in the Tunisia squad for their upcoming games.
Here, we take a look at the Clarets who will be in action over the coming fortnight:
