Jon Flanagan will not be able to make his Burnley debut when last season's Sky Bet Championship winners face Swansea at Turf Moor.
The Liverpool loanee barely featured in pre-season for his parent club prior to his switch and Clarets boss Sean Dyche wants to see his conditioning improve before he thrusts him into action.
One full-back who may feature is Republic of Ireland international Stephen Ward (hamstring) though striker Ashley Barnes, who is suffering from a similar problem, is unlikely to play in a game which could see Icelander Johann Berg Gudmundsson make his senior bow
Provisional squad: Heaton, Robinson, Pope, Lowton, Lafferty, Keane, Mee, Ward, Tarkowski, Darikwa, K Long, Marney, Kightly, Jones, Ulvestad, Boyd, Gudmundsson, Arfield, Gray, Vokes, Hennings, Jutkiewicz, C Long.
