BurnleySolid effort in the start
Bruun Larsen had one shot (zero on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 2-1 loss against Newcastle United.
Analysis: Bruun Larsen picked up his first start in six matches and delivered a solid effort, as he recorded at least one shot for a second straight game. Conversely, he only has one shot on target through the last four outings. This also marked the second consecutive and seventh time in 13 appearances on the season that he recorded more than 10 completed passes. Additionally, his five crosses marked a new season high, while he is up to three accurate crosses over the last two games.
Earns bench spot
Brunn Larsen (undisclosed) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Aston Villa.
Analysis: Brunn Larsen returned to play last outing against Manchester City and is an option once again, fit for a bench spot against Aston Villa. He appeared for 28 minutes last outing and will look to earn another appearance before a potential start, as he started in two straight before his injury.
Doesn't make bench
Larsen (undisclosed) is not on the bench for Saturday's game against Manchester City.
Analysis: Larsen was a late call for this clash, but the forward wasn't deemed fit enough to be an option. His next chance to return will come against Aston Villa on Sunday, Oct. 5.
Late call to face Man City
Bruun Larsen (undisclosed) will be a late call to face Manchester City on Saturday, manager Scott Parker told media Thursday. "As for Jacob, he's trained the last couple of days and he was out with us today [Thursday], so I'm hoping he comes through tomorrow. I'm hoping he'll be around for the weekend, so I'll make a decision."
Analysis: Bruun Larsen picked up an injury on international duty with Denmark and has been slowly working his way back into the group. The fact that he's been training for the last two days is positive, but a decision on whether the forward will be part of the squad will probably be made Friday. The recent signs are encouraging and appear to be trending in the right direction, though.
Remains out Saturday
Bruun Larsen (undisclosed) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Nottingham Forest.
Analysis: Bruun Larsen has not recovered in time and remains sidelined for Saturday's game against Nottingham Forest. The forward had been hoping to return after missing the Liverpool clash with a knock but was not deemed ready.
Could return Saturday
Bruun Larsen (undisclosed) could return for Saturday's clash with Nottingham Forest, according to manager Scott Parker. "He's been back training, so hopefully, he will be available for the weekend. He came back today. Hopefully, if he comes through tomorrow, he'll be in a good place to maybe be involved in the squad."
Analysis: Bruun Larsen is ramping up after a knock ruled him out against Liverpool. The forward is hopeful of returning against Nottingham Forest, though he will still need to avoid any late issues. Loum Tchaouna got the start against Liverpool with Bruun Larsen out.
Suffers knock, missing Sunday
Bruun Larsen was out for Saturday's 1-0 loss to Liverpool due to a knock, according to Matt Scrafton of the Burnley Express.
Analysis: Bruun Larsen was absent from the team sheet Sunday despite no prior report of an injury, appearing to have suffered a knock in the build-up to the game. This left the club without their starter on the right wing from their past two games, with Loum Tchaouna taking his spot against Liverpool. Bruun Larsen will now hope to recover over the week and be fit to face Newcastle on Saturday, only dealing with a minor issue if the claims of a knock are true.
Decent shift in loss
Bruun Larsen registered one assist and one accurate cross in 82 minutes played.
Analysis: Bruun Larsen was one of Burnley's better players in their 3-2 defeat to Manchester United. In 82 minutes played, the right winger tallied one assist, created two chances, and made two interceptions. The assist was Bruun Larsen's first goal contribution in two EPL starts this season. Given that he has started each of Burnley's last two matches, it seems he would have a good chance of starting against Liverpool after the international break.
