Clarets skipper Ben Mee is eager to get started after seeing the Premier League return to action after a 100-day break.
Aston Villa and Sheffield United set the ball rolling with a goalless draw on Wednesday evening as the league came out of the lockdown brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic.
And the second of the two outstanding games in hand was then completed as Arsenal lost to Manchester City – the Clarets’ first opponents back when Sean Dyche’s men travel to the Etihad Stadium next Monday night.
“We're feeling good about it. It's been a long time coming,” said Mee.
