Premier League
Turf Moor
Another away game in Europe, another ****show. New manager, same awful performance.
Playing the majority of the match with 10 men won't have been ideal preparation for this game, either.
We may have beaten Leeds, but the first half of that match was equally poor and toothless.
Any boost that we may have had from hiring the new manager appears to have gone out the window.
Can Conte manage to get 90 minutes out of this lot or will Burnley finish off a low week?
Last season was a pretty poor one for the Northern Clarets.
They flirted with relegation all season and narrowly avoided it near the end.
Beating Fulham with three games left kept them up officially, but they went on to lose the remaining fixtures.
That left them in 17th place, albeit 11 points clear of 18th place Fulham.
They've got an extremely limited budget, but Dyche won't want a repeat of that this time.
The summer saw them bring in Nathan Collins, Maxwel Cornet and some backup players.
The Ivorian winger has been a revelation since his move from Lyon, scoring 5 times in 7 games, so far.
The rest of the side hasn't been on his level though, as they've only won one game.
Victory over Brentford has been part of a decent run of four games unbeaten.
Score draws against Southampton, Chelsea and Palace may point to defensive weaknesses to deal with.
Our visit to Turf Moor last season was early in the campaign and it was a mediocre performance.
We had plenty of the ball, but struggled to create chances, despite the good from of Kane and Son.
The hosts' physicality was evident early on and it was about the only notable thing about the first half.
A Kane goalline clearance opened the second, before Lamela came on and we got going.
His corner was flicked on by Kane to be headed home by Son for the only goal of a fairly dull match:

The return at our place was very different, as we ran riot from the first minute.
Bale, Kane and Moura made it 3-0 by about the half hour and it wasn't that flattering, either.
The visitors didn't seem to have an answer to how we were playing and created almost nothing.
Bale scored a second after the break to completely kill it off and it was quite a stroll after that.
Son still could've scored another, but was denied by Pope and it ended 4-0:

Romero, Lo Celso and Scarlett will still be absent for this one, but we've nothing new yet.
Barnes is Burnley's only definite injury absence, though Rodriguez, Vydra and Stephens all face tests.
Tarkowski and Westwood will also miss out, due to suspensions for picking up 5 yellows.
