Starting against Brighton Weghorst (hip) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Brighton.

Impact As expected, Weghorst is fine Saturday and in the starting XI against Brighton. It's unknown if he'll be able to go a full 90 after going 75 minutes last match, but it's not like Burnley's forwards are the fittest at the moment and Jay Rodriguez is an option off the bench, as well.

Expected to be ready Saturday Weghorst (hip) has "done some light training" and manager Sean Dyche is expecting him to be "okay" for Saturday's trip to Brighton.

Impact It doesn't sound like a serious injury for Weghorst and he'll probably hold onto his starting role Saturday. If not, things may have to be moved around in the XI, as Burnley don't really have anyone else outside of Maxwel Cornet who could play as more of a striker.

Joins Burnley Weghorst joined Burnley from Wolfsburg on a three-and-a-half-year deal, his new club announced Monday.

Impact Weghorst is as close a style comparison to former-Claret Chris Wood, so this move makes plenty of sense for all involved. What could be concerning is that Weghorst has only scored six times in 18 appearances this season after scoring 20 goals in 34 matches in the previous campaign. However, Wood never scored more than 14 goals in any of the past four full league seasons while Weghorst never scored fewer than 16 during that time. As he departs Germany there's a big hole to fill at his previous club, as Lukas Nmecha (ankle) is out for months and no other striker has provided similar contributions for a low-scoring club. At his new destination, Weghorst may need some time to settle in but should have few problems becoming the top option at striker.

Ends goal drought in 2-2 draw Weghorst scored once, took one shot (one on target), created one chance and made one tackle (none won) in the 2-2 draw against Arminia Bielefeld on Saturday.

Impact Weghorst saved his performance with a right time, right spot goal in the draw Saturday. The forward since his return has been underwhelming at best with two total shots over three games. In 13 appearances this season he is averaging just over 2.0 shots per game, however, his shot quality is rather poor. He will remain a boom-or-bust option for the immediate future.
