Injured Duo Getting Up To Speed
Ashley Barnes and Jack Cork both joined in training as the Clarets set their sights on Saturday’s screen test against Chelsea.
Joint top scorer Barnes missed last weekend’s controversial 2-1 defeat at Leicester City with a slight groin problem which ended his ever-present start to the Premier League season.
And midfield man Cork is stuck on 150 appearances for the Clarets after a fractured shoulder blade sustained at Aston Villa has kept him out of the last two games.
But both are back working with the group, with boss Sean Dyche hopeful he can add them to the mix for the tea-time visit of former champions Chelsea, which is being broadcast live on Sky Sports.
