FA CUP PREVIEW Burnley v MK Dons
Build-up as the Clarets launch FA challenge against League One Dons

“I'm really excited about it, and the players should be too. We should have no fear. It's a big challenge going to a Premier League side away from home, no matter where you are in the league, but it's a one-off.

“It's a chance to show what we're about, and to show what good players we can be.

“It will be really difficult. I speak about the culture here, but you look at Sean Dyche and his staff – they have built a seriously strong culture.

“Everyone knows what they are about. The playing styles are a bit different, but culturally, you won't find many stronger than Burnley."

Match stats

The Clarets have won all four previous meetings between the clubs across three different competitions.

Burnley have won nine of their last 11 FA Cup ties against lower-ranked opposition.

Matt Lowton's only goal for Burnley came against MK Dons in the Championship five years ago.

Burnley teammate Kevin Long made two appearances on loan at MK Dons in the 2015/16 season.
