Burnley boss Sean Dyche says they'll face Manchester United tonight in good shape.

Goalkeeper Nick Pope will be available after turning an ankle in training on Friday while Charlie Taylor, Dwight McNeil and Jay Rodriguez are all touch and go.

Victory for United would send them top of the Premier League standings, with Liverpool the latest leaders to hit a rough patch.

Dyche said: “It's been a funny one, it's almost seemed like no one quite wanted to grip hold of it and win their games.

“I don't think anyone's doubted their (United's) ability for a long while, it's getting the consistency into the team and winning games. They're showing much stronger signs of that obviously over the last run of games.

“The main thing is about our performance levels, and I think they've got stronger as the season's gone on. We're on a good little run ourselves."
