Burnley boss Sean Dyche to shuffle pack

Burnley boss Sean Dyche will probably make changes to his starting line up against Bristol City.

Dyche saw his team comprehensively beaten 3-0 by fellow promotion hopefuls Hull on Boxing Day so could freshen things up for a return to Turf Moor.

Tendayi Darikwa is an option to come back into the defence while David Jones and Matthew Taylor provide alternatives in midfield.

Ashley Barnes is making good progress in his return from a knee injury and should feature at some point this season but Lukas Jutkiewicz, who also tore his cruciate ligament, may have to wait until next term.

City will check on Kieran Agard after the striker missed a second match with a calf strain on Saturday.

Should Agard remain absent, nine-goal top scorer Jonathan Kodjia and Aaron Wilbraham will continue to spearhead the attack with Simon Cox, who has yet to start a game for the Robins since signing on loan from Reading in October, providing back-up on the bench.

Midfielder Bobby Reid could be in contention to start after impressing and scoring in action for the development squad this week.

The likes of Mark Little, Derrick Williams, Liam Moore and Wes Burns are also options for Bristol boss Steve Cotterill.
