Burnley

Roberts (strain) is back on the grass but isn't expected to return in a few weeks, manager Scott Parker told media Friday. "He's back on the grass," Parker revealed. "He's reacting in the right way from his treatment but he's still probably a few weeks away. But initially, from where we were, he's definitely heading in the right direction. We'll see how the next couple of weeks go when we pick up his work and hopefully he comes through that and keeps improving, so we'll see how that goes."

Beyer is dealing with a hamstring injury and is out for the time being, though he's already working on the grass, manager Scott Parker told media Friday. "Jordan's the same [as Connor]," Parker said. "Jordan's picked up his work and he's on the grass as well. I think he'll probably need a little bit more time though - and obviously the history with Jordan and what he's coming out of in terms of that long injury of his knee and now this hamstring, we just need to tread very, very carefully. But he's heading in the right direction."

Ekdal (undisclosed) should be available for Sunday's clash against Liverpool, coach Scott Parker said in the press conference. "All players have come back fit and healthy from the international break which is positive. Beyond that, not much has changed in terms of availability."

Ekdal (undisclosed) was forced off injured in Monday's 2-0 defeat against Kosovo, according to Sports Dunia.
