Goal Scorer:
Burnley
Burnley are still having to cope without Michael Obafemi (hamstring), Nathan Redmond (knock) and Darko Churlinov (blood poisoning), while Saturday's game will also come too soon for Johann Berg Gudmundsson (calf), Manuel Benson (knock) and Hjalmar Ekdal (knee).
Kompany is not expected to make too many changes, if any, to his starting lineup, with a back four of Connor Roberts, Ameen Al-Dakhil, Jordan Beyer and Charlie Taylor set to line up behind midfield trio Josh Brownhill, Josh Cullen and Sander Berge.
After scoring the winner on Tuesday, Bruun Larsen will hope to start his first Premier League game in the front three, but Foster, Luca Koleosho and Zeki Amdouni are the most likely trio to continue in attack.
Burnley possible starting lineup:
Trafford; Roberts, Al-Dakhil, Beyer, Taylor; Berge, Cullen, Brownhill; Koleosho, Foster, Amdouni
Chelsea
As for Chelsea, Ben Chilwell is ruled out until December with a hamstring injury and will join Christopher Nkunku, Wesley Fofana (both knee), Romeo Lavia (ankle) and Marcus Bettinelli (unspecified) on the sidelines, while Benoit Badiashile (hamstring), Trevoh Chalobah (thigh) and Carney Chukwuemeka (knee) will all be assessed ahead of kickoff.
Reece James is closing in on a return from a hamstring injury, but he will serve a one-game ban this weekend for improper conduct, while fellow right-back Malo Gusto will serve the third and final game of his three-match suspension, meaning that left-back Marc Cucurella is set to continue on the right side of a back four.
Mudryk is fit to feature after shaking off a thigh issue, while Moises Caidedo sustained a knock to his knee in the win at Fulham, but he is available for selection on Saturday and should retain his place in centre-midfield alongside Enzo Fernandez and Conor Gallagher.
Nicolas Jackson is available to return from a one-match ban and will compete with Borja for a start up front, while Cole Palmer, who like Broja impressed against Fulham, will hope to keep his place on the right flank; Raheem Sterling, meanwhile, will look to replace Mudryk on the left.
Chelsea possible starting lineup:
Sanchez; Cucurella, Disasi, Silva, Colwill; Caicedo, Fernandez, Gallagher; Palmer, Jackson, Sterling
Prediction: Burnley 0-1 Chelsea
