Injury concerns loom over both Burnley and Brentford ahead of their upcoming clash in FPL Gameweek 29 of the Premier League.

Meanwhile, Brentford faces a lengthy injury list, with Ethan Pinnock, Aaron Hickey, Kevin Schade, Rico Henry, Josh Dasilva, and Ben Mee all unavailable due to various ailments. Although Bryan Mbeumo has returned to training following an ankle injury, manager Thomas Frank has hinted at a post-international break return for the winger.
Following their narrow defeat to Arsenal, Brentford encountered fresh concerns as Sergio Reguilon missed out due to a minor hamstring injury, while Christian Norgaard picked up a knock. However, Frank expressed optimism about having both players fit for the Burnley fixture, with Reguilon’s potential return attracting attention from Fantasy Premier League managers. Reguilon’s presence in a Brentford training video further suggests positive progress ahead of the upcoming match.

On the Tottenham side, the latest injury concern is Micky van der Ven, who sustained a hamstring injury during the victory over Aston Villa.

Jacob Ramsey, who sustained a foot injury during the Gameweek 27 victory over Luton Town, is also unavailable.
