Hartlepool United's Chris Turner believes that his side have a great chance to claim a Premier League scalp as they face Burnley tonight.
Clarets manager Owen Coyle has admitted he'll pick a weakened team for the game tonight and Turner is eyeing a potential upset.
''I know Owen Coyle has said he will change things around with his selection which is understandable given that their priority must be the Premier League.
''We know that whichever team he selects will be full of quality but we have started the season quite solidly and I'm confident we can give them a game.''
After beating 2 top flight sides last season Turner is confident that Pools can add to that list ''It's a great time to be playing Burnley as they seem to be the talking point of the Premier League just now.
''Last season we had some joy against West Brom and Stoke and also played well against West Ham - I'm confident we can enjoy tonight as well but it will be tough for us.'' he told the official site.
