Burnley boss Dyche content with squad rotation ahead of Leeds clash

Sean Dyche believes his Burnley squad has enough depth too rotate for Tuesday night's Carabao Cup clash with Leeds.

The Clarets have started well this season, losing only once from their six matches, despite facing Tottenham, Chelsea and Liverpool.

And ahead of the third-round cup tie on Tuesday, Dyche isn't afraid to give his reserve players some game time against the the Whites.

"I do believe in the group," he said.

"I think there are very, very fine margins between who's playing and who's not. Currently, the team are doing a good job overall and the team that played in the cup did a fantastic job, I thought they were terrific on the night.

"There's a fair chance we make changes. I was questioned about the changes against Blackburn, heavily in some quarters, and yet they gave a very, very good performance. I believe in the players wholeheartedly."
