BURNLEY will be keen to avoid a repeat of the Barcelona curse when they face Stoke City and their forward Bojan Krkic tomorrow.

The Clarets have found it tough going this season against former stars of the Nou Camp.

Cesc Fabregas starred at Turf Moor in the opening game of the season on his Chelsea debut after arriving from Barcelona in the summer.

Former Barca striker Samuel Eto’o scored a brace against Burnley for Everton, then Alexis Sanchez did the same for Arsenal earlier this month.

Burnley now face Bojan, who made his name after emerging through the Barcelona youth system and into the first team.

The 24-year-old made more than 100 appearances for Barca before moving on to Roma.

The forward also had loan spells with AC Milan and Ajax before Mark Hughes signed him for Stoke.

Bojan scored in the Potters’ 2-1 win at Tottenham in their last match a fortnight ago.
