Team News

Burnley
Burnley will again be without the services of Erik Pieters, Dale Stephens, Matej Vydra and Johann Berg Gudmundsson on Saturday, while Ben Mee is a major doubt due to the knee problem that he suffered against Leicester last time out.

Dyche said during his pre-match press conference that it is "touch and go" as to whether the central defender makes the match, but it does appear that he is likely to be available.

Wout Weghorst has impressed since his arrival in January and will continue in the final third of the field alongside Maxwel Cornet, with Aaron Lennon set to feature off the right.
Burnley possible starting lineup:
Pope; Roberts, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor; Lennon, Westwood, Brownhill, McNeil; Weghorst, Cornet

Chelsea
As for Chelsea, Ben Chilwell is out for the remainder of the season following a knee operation, while Andreas Christensen and Cesar Azpilicueta are unlikely to be available, but Hakim Ziyech and Trevoh Chalobah should both be in the squad.

Chalobah suffered a groin problem against Liverpool, which led to him needing stitches, but the centre-back is expected to be available for this match and could come into the back three.

Reece James featured off the bench against Luton and could now start at Burnley, while N'Golo Kante and Mateo Kovacic should feature in central midfield.

Romelu Lukaku was on the scoresheet in the FA Cup last time out, and the Belgium international could be given the nod in the final third with support from Mason Mount and Kai Havertz.
Chelsea possible starting lineup:
Mendy; Chalobah, T Silva, Rudiger; James, Kovacic, Kante, Alonso; Havertz, Lukaku, Mount
Prediction: Burnley 1-2 Chelsea
