Accrington play their home games at the Crown Ground and Burnley will be going there hoping to put the disappointment of losing the midweek cup game against Walsall to a free kick deep into stoppage time.
Terry Pashley makes four changes to the team that started against Walsall. In come goalkeeper Callum Jakovlevs and midfielders Kevin Ly, Luke Daly and Evan Galvin, all of whom were substitutes in midweek.
They replace Conor Mitchell, Christian Hill, Nathan Lowe and Jamie Frost who take their positions on the bench alongside Brad Jackson who impressed as a substitute against Walsall.
Cameron Howieson, who missed out because of international duty on Tuesday will be absent again as he is rested to allow him to recover from the travelling he's endured this week.
We go into the game having won our last five league games, a run that has taken us to sixth place in the league having previously won one and lost three of the first four games. We play an Accrington team who are currently third from bottom with one win and five points from their nine games.
Burnley's team is: Callum Jakovlevs, Cameron Dummigan, Charlie Holt, Alex Whitmore, Luke Conlan, Evan Galvin, Luke Daly, Luke Gallagher, Kevin Ly, Lewis Nuttall, Jason Gilchrist. Subs: Conor Mitchell, Christian Hill, Nathan Lowe, Jamie Frost, Brad Jackson.
