Burnley v Tottenham Hotspur: match preview

This article is more than 6 years old

Burnley could not have imagined when drawing at Wembley in August that they would be higher in the table than Tottenham when the return fixture came around. The visitors will be anxious to put the 4-1 defeat at Manchester City on their last trip to the north west behind them, while the home side will be missing ever-present James Tarkowski for the next three matches, the defender having picked up a retrospective ban for elbowing Glenn Murray at Brighton. Paul Wilson
