Matchday squad update: Burnley vs Bournemouth

Venue: Turf Moor, Burnley – 14 March 2026, Premier League (Round 30).

Burnley come in 19th with 19 points and a -26 goal difference, while Bournemouth sit 9th on 40 points.

Burnley availability

Burnley are heavily depleted. Zeki Amdouni is ruled out with a knee injury, as are Jordan Beyer (thigh), Armando Broja (injury), Josh Cullen (knee), Connor Roberts (groin), Mike Trésor Ndayishimiye (ankle) and Axel Tuanzebe (Achilles). Forward M. Edwards is doubtful with a knock and faces a late fitness test. With so many absentees, attacking responsibility will likely fall on the likes of Jacob Bruun Larsen, Lyle Foster and L. Tchaouna, all expected to be available.

Bournemouth availability

Bournemouth have a shorter but significant injury list. Lewis Cook is out with a hamstring problem, alongside Ben Doak (hamstring), Justin Kluivert (knee) and defender J. Soler (injury). Key attacker Antoine Semenyo, with 10 goals and 3 assists, is fit and available, as is Eli Junior Kroupi, who has contributed 8 league goals.

Impact summary

Burnley’s absences strip depth across defence and attack, further complicating their relegation battle. Bournemouth, despite missing creative options like Kluivert, retain most of their attacking output, with 18 league goals between Semenyo and Kroupi still available, giving the visitors a clear edge in forward firepower.
