Burnley came within minutes of securing an impressive away victory against a managerless Cardiff side on Saturday before a last-gasp Callum Robinson strike stole two points away from the Clarets. The hosts are unbeaten in eight league games but have drawn three of their last four. Stoke were dismantled by a far superior side on Sunday afternoon as the Potters collapsed to a 4-0 home defeat against Watford. Alex Neil's transition to life at the bet365 Stadium hasn't been comfortable and the away side have now won just one of their last five Championship fixtures. 1:0

Expect Vincent Kompany to make just one change for the visit of Stoke on Wednesday night with winger Manuel Benson set to start in place of Johann Berg Gudmundsson. Darko Churlinov and Ashley Westwood remain sidelined, while Scott Twine has suffered a setback in his recovery. Alex Neil could hand a recall to wing-back Harry Clarke after he returned to the bench against Watford following an injury lay-off. Gavin Kilkenny is back in training but remains a doubt for the visitors.
