Burnley must make selection changes for the home game against Sunderland tomorrow with Jon Harley and James O'Connor suspended.
The duo's absence paves the way for others to stake a permanent place in the starting line-up, but manager Steve Cotterill insists the pressure is on for them to perform.
He said: "They know this week they have to perform because otherwise they know the following week they won't be in the team.
"It's good to have that pressure and it's right the players have that pressure because it does make you perform."
