Sean Dyche is looking to give his players as much game-time as possible as the countdown to kick-off continues.
The release of the first three rounds of fixtures following the planned Premier League re-start has confirmed that Burnley will resume their campaign at defending champions Manchester City on Monday, 22 June.
That leaves just over a fortnight for the Clarets to fine-tune their preparations with Dyche planning to line up games in-house and against outside opposition following the green light from the league earlier this week.
“We have had some clearance to play some friendly games which opens up another guideline to bring you back to a bit more of a normal situation,” said the Burnley boss, whose squad has been back at the training ground since 19 May when lockdown restrictions were eased and the first round of testing for coronavirus was completed.
