NEW professional Cameron Howieson has been named on the bench for Burnley's game at Portsmouth this afternoon.

The 17-year-old attacking midfielder this week signed a two-year contract, after helping the Clarets reach the FA Youth Cup semi-finals for the first time in 34 years.

New Zealander Howieson comes into the 16-man squad in place of Under 18s team-mate Steven Hewitt.

Burnley are otherwise unchanged from the side which drew 2-2 at home to West Ham United last week.

Portsmouth also name an unchanged starting 11 following their midweek win over Hull City.

Subs: Brian Jensen, Junior Stanislas, Josh McQuoid, Charlie Austin, Cameron Howieson.
