The German has also confirmed that Yves Bissouma will be back in the squad after missing the midweek game for disciplinary reasons.
Burnley expect to have near enough a full squad to pick from, although Zeki Amdouni (ACL) and Manuel Benson (Achilles) remain out.

The club revealed he had been on the receiving end of online abuse and released a statement in his defence.
It read: "We are disgusted at the racial abuse that Mathys Tel has received on social media following last night's UEFA Super Cup defeat.
"Mathys showed bravery and courage to step forward and take a penalty, yet those who abuse him are nothing but cowards - hiding behind anonymous usernames and profiles to spout their abhorrent views.
"We will work with the authorities and social media platforms to take the strongest possible action against any individual we are able to identify.
"We stand with you, Mathys."

Joe Schmidt hails Australia's dramatic fight back to stun South Africa in Rugby Championship opener at Ellis Park
It ended a 62-year wait for Australia to claim victory at the Springboks' spiritual home, one that had looked unlikely following an excellent first quarter from the home side in their Rugby Championship opener. Schmidt admitted the first 20 minutes 'was not good for the heart', but Australia then took control of the game for a win that will rank among their best in test rugby. 'At 22-0 down after the first quarter, there was real courage again from the players,' Schmidt told SuperSport. 'We were forced to play catch-up and take a few risks, and there were a few lucky bounces for us, so we are not going to get too carried away. 'But at the same time I am incredibly proud of the group. I am realistic about getting a little bit of luck, but delighted we came back. 1963 was a long time ago, to the players are delighted.' Australia took the lead around the hour-mark, but that is usually when the Springboks come into their own with their powerful replacement forwards off the bench. But the buoyant visitors kept coming and Schmidt saw no repeat of a previous loss to the Springboks in similar circumstances. 'This win is right up there, I came here with an Irish team and I think we were 26-10 up with 20 minutes to go and got steamrolled and beaten,' he said. 'So to get what we did tonight at Ellis Park is testament to the character of the group.' Australia will be sweating over two players who left the field injured ahead of another Rugby Championship clash with the Springboks in Cape Town next Saturday. Dylan Pietsch injured his jaw and captain Harry Wilson, who scored two tries, pulled up lame as the number eight crossed for his second score.

Manchester City begin title quest with convincing win against Wolves
The 42 ERLING HAALAND AND new signings Tijjani Reinders and Rayan Cherki combined as Manchester City thrashed Wolves 4-0 in their Premier League opener. Haaland struck twice either side of a fine effort from Reijnders, and substitute Cherki added a late fourth, as City began their quest for a seventh title in nine years in convincing fashion at Molineux. Reijnders also had a hand in both of Haaland's goals in what was a particularly impressive introduction to life in the English top flight. Whilst it may be premature to suggest City have found the ideal replacement for Kevin De Bruyne, it was a very promising showing from the Dutchman. His presence brought dynamism to a City side that also raised eyebrows in other areas. Most notably, goalkeeper James Trafford was handed a debut and Ederson – described as 'number one' by manager Pep Guardiola this week despite speculation over his future – was missing from the squad altogether. The club, however, later confirmed the Brazilian's absence was due to illness, with the 31-year-old suffering from gastroenteritis. John Stones returned in defence for his first appearance since February and another new recruit, Rayan Ait-Nouri, featured against the club he left in the summer. It was an emotional occasion for Wolves as they paid a series of tributes before and during the game to Diogo Jota, their former striker who died last month following a car accident.

Alamy Stock Photo Alamy Stock Photo The visitors assumed control early on but did not create a clear-cut opening until the 19th minute when captain Bernardo Silva crossed for Haaland but the Norwegian, having to stretch too much, headed over. City had some moments of alarm as Wolves got behind the defence. Marshall Munetsi thought he scored when he headed past Trafford from a Matt Doherty cross but he was clearly offside. A chance also appeared to open up for Jean-Ricner Bellegarde but again the flag was raised. City took charge of the game after two moments of brilliance from Reijnders in the space of three minutes. The Netherlands international, whose outings at the Club World Cup may have helped him settle, played a delightful lob over the defence for Rico Lewis and his pull-back presented Haaland with a simple tap-in. Moments later the former AC Milan midfielder applied the finishing touch himself with a superb low strike across goal after Andre Gomes lost possession to Oscar Bobb. Jorgen Strand Larsen spurned a good chance to pull one back after the break when he side-footed narrowly wide and the same player also forced Trafford to palm over. Haaland increased City's lead just after the hour following more incisive work from Reijnders, who received a long ball from Trafford and exchanged passes with Bobb on the right. He continued his run and pulled back for Haaland to sweep home from the edge of the area. Cherki, having been on the field just eight minutes, added to Wolves' woes when he drove in from distance nine minutes from time after combining with Nico O'Reilly.
