Vincent Kompany hoping relegation fight takes another swing in Burnley's favour ...

David Fofana comes back into the side in place of Charlie Taylor, who drops down to the bench.

The change sees Vitinho drop back to left-back from his previous role of right wing.

Fofana, meanwhile, will partner Lyle Foster in attack after the striker was passed fit.

The South African hobbled off during last week’s 4-1 win against Sheffield United after being rated “touch and go” beforehand.

Elsewhere, Ameen Al-Dakhil, Jordan Beyer, Aaron Ramsey, Luca Koleosho and Nathan Redmond all remain sidelined.

As for United, they’ve named an unchanged side from the team that laboured to a 4-2 win against Sheffield United in midweek.
