Neither Matt Taylor nor new signing Fredrik Ulvestad will be in the Burnley squad for Saturday's Premier League clash with Manchester City at Turf Moor.
Taylor has played twice for the development squad as he continues his slow recovery from Achilles surgery but is not yet ready for the first-team squad.
Norwegian midfielder Ulvestad, meanwhile, is seen more as a player for the long term after signing a three-year deal this week. Dean Marney and Kevin Long (both cruciate) are long-term absentees.
Provisional squad: Heaton, Gilks, Trippier, Mee, Keane, Shackell, Duff, Arfield, Boyd, Jones, Wallace, Kightly, Barnes, Vokes, Ings, Sordell, Reid, Jutkiewicz, Ward.
