Burnley’s progression in the FA Cup has allowed them to compete on multiple fronts this season.

The Clarets are currently top of the Championship league table and have a 12-point lead over second-placed Cardiff City; however, they have been drawn against Manchester City in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

Vincent Kompany hopes his team can progress as far as possible in both competitions.

Scott Brown has had a solid first season at Fleetwood, though the club is realistically content with survival to a mid-table finish.

More recently, though, Fleetwood has gone six matches unbeaten in all competitions, including 13 points and four clean sheets from five League One fixtures.

Fleetwood has gone nine halves of football without conceding a goal and can now place more focus on this tie.

Fleetwood Town Team News

With Jayden Stockley cup-tied, Brown will have to change the Fleetwood attack. He may stick with the remainder of the side that started versus Morecambe, or he could bring Promise Omochere back into the team.
