Burnley are back on the road as they head to the Hawthorns to take on West Bromwich Albion in front of the TV cameras.

Vincent Kompany’s men enter the game in high spirits following back-to-back wins against Wigan Athletic and Millwall.

Team news

Ian Maatsen is available after missing the past three matches through suspension after he was sent off in the 3-3 draw against Blackpool.

However, Arijanet Muric is a doubt after he was forced off against Millwall due to a shoulder problem.

Anass Zaroury could be involved after joining from Charleroi. The club also brought in Halil Dervişoğlu and Jordan Beyer on Deadline Day.

Scott Twine and Kevin Long are both nearing a return, while Ashley Westwood remains sidelined with a long-term injury.

Opposition lowdown

West Brom brought in several fresh faces during the summer including Jed Wallace and John Swift among others.

Steve Bruce’s side have taken eight points from their opening seven league matches and currently sit 14th in the Championship table.

The Baggies enter the game on the back of a 1-1 draw against Wigan on Tuesday night after Karlan Grant’s first-half strike.

Head-to-head

Burnley have faced West Brom 133 times in their history, with a record of 46 wins, 31 draws and 56 defeats.

The points were shared when the sides last met back in February 2021 after a goalless draw at Turf Moor.

The scoreline was also the same when the Clarets last headed to the Hawthorns in October 2020, with Chris Wood hitting the woodwork.
