Burnley vs Man United team news

Burnley will be a happy team before the start of the game as three first-team regulars who were previously unavailable are back with the squad. Sean Dyche will welcome Nick Pope back to the first team following his recovery from a minor ankle injury. In a pre-match press conference, the Burnley manager also confirmed that Josh Brownhill and Ashley Westwood, who missed Burnley’s FA Cup clash against MK Dons after testing positive for Coronavirus have recovered and will be back.
