What is the team news?
For Burnley, Robbie Brady is a doubt due to a hamstring issue, as is Dale Stephens, while Johann Berg Gudmundsson should recover from a calf injury just in time to be included in the hosts’ squad. Defender Charlie Taylor similarly should overcome an Achilles niggle to make the bench at least. Phil Bardsley returns after finishing his period of self-isolation, having tested positive for coronavirus last month.
Palace, meanwhile, are boosted by numerous returns, including those of defenders James Tomkins, James Ward and Tyrick Mitchell. In midfield, Eberechi Eze is a doubt, and Luka Milivojevic is serving a suspension – and also tested positive for coronavirus while on international duty.
Predicted line-ups
Burnley: Pope; Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Pieters; Gudmundsson, Westwood, Stephens, McNeil; Barnes, Wood
Palace: Guaita; Clyne, Kouyate, Dann, Van Aanholt; Townsend, Riedewald, McArthur, Schlupp; Ayew, Zaha
Odds
Burnley: 7/4
Draw: 21/10
Palace: 7/4
Prediction
Palace have been in encouraging form so far this term and it’s still proving difficult to see where Burnley’s points are going to come from. The hosts will hope that the international break has given them a chance to reset, but Palace seem a safer bet here. Burnley 0-1 Palace.
