First and foremost, does the Clarets boss stick with the three at the back that he started the season with against Tottenham on the opening day?
While Burnley ultimately fell to a 3-0 defeat, their performance was largely positive and the scoreline doesn’t tell the whole story.
But leading into a game where more pressure and expectation will be on the Clarets, does Parker revert to the back four that worked so well in the Championship last season?
With that in mind, here’s how we think the Clarets will line up:
