Burke has not played since he was forced off with a knee injury during the Saddlers' 2-1 win over Bristol Rovers at Bescot on October 4. 

The 22-year-old, who has scored once in nine league appearances this term, initially returned to training earlier this month, but suffered a further setback on his road to recovery. 

In total, the defender has missed five league games, but trained on Thursday ahead of the weekend trek to Wetherby Road.

Meanwhile, Brandon Comley has recovered from illness, after missing the past two games. 

Burke returned to 'full training' on Thursday
