Preston team news

Preston will be without several key players for their upcoming match against Burnley. Midfielder Duane Holmes is sidelined with a fractured fibula sustained during the recent victory over Norwich City.

Defenders Jordan Storey and Jack Whatmough are also unavailable; midfielder Mads Frøkjær-Jensen is a doubt after picking up a knock in the match against Millwall, which caused him to miss the recent game at Coventry City.

Burnley team news

Burnley, on the other hand, are approaching a fully fit squad but still have some concerns. Defender Bashir Humphreys missed the recent 4-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday due to a quadriceps injury, and his availability remains uncertain.

While Enock Agyei, Luca Koleosho, and Nathan Redmond have returned to fitness, they were not included in the matchday squad for the Sheffield Wednesday game, leaving their participation against Preston in question.
