"Burnley head coach Scott Parker believes striker Armando Broja has managed to "dodge a bullet" and could be fit to face his previous club Chelsea. Broja was taken off the pitch on a stretcher after twisting his ankle during the final stages of Albania's World Cup qualifier against England but he has been able to train since midweek. Quilindschy Hartman has recovered from the illness which caused him to withdraw from the Netherlands squad during the international break."
"Chelsea's Alejandro Garnacho (6.4m) has produced one goal and two assists in the last three gameweeks. In that time, he has created the most big chances (four) and only three midfielders have attempted more than his eight shots. Since gameweek 9, no midfielder has had more shots than the 11 of Enzo Fernandez (6.7m) of Chelsea, and only one has created more than his nine chances."
The Premier League gameweek begins with Burnley hosting Chelsea at Saturday lunchtime (12:30 GMT). Burnley striker Armando Broja could be fit after an ankle twist that required a stretcher; he has trained since midweek. Quilindschy Hartman has recovered from the illness that forced his international withdrawal. Chelsea playmaker Cole Palmer fractured his toe at home and will miss the next three matches. Beniot Badiashile, Enzo Fernandez and Pedro Neto are fit again. Players currently out include Burnley's Amdouni, Beyer and Roberts and Chelsea's Colwill, Essugo, Lavia, Mudryk and Palmer, with Broja listed as a doubt. Key FPL performers include Zian Flemming, Alejandro Garnacho and Enzo Fernandez.
