Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew has said that he has no concerns over Christian Benteke's failure to score in his last three games.

Benteke netted three times in five outings during September but he was unable to get on the scoresheet during October in fixtures against West Ham United, Leicester City and Liverpool.

However, ahead of the Eagles' trip to Burnley, Pardew has claimed that Benteke's recent drought is currently not an issue.

The 55-year-old told reporters: "If we've only got to worry about three games without our striker scoring then we're quite lucky - 12 or 13 and it becomes an issue.

"I picked the team early this week, so I've been working with them for two days already. Hopefully we'll see the benefit."

Palace and Burnley head into the game at Turf Moor level on points in the Premier League table.
