Burnley v Tottenham: match preview

Burnley v Tottenham: probable starters in bold, contenders in light Photograph: Guardian

Tottenham should coast past winless Burnley on current form, providing José Mourinho has served up a reminder of his reputation after the three-goal collapse against West Ham. Rather continuing the break from said reputation, Tottenham are the Premier League’s top scorers with 15. Burnley have three. Mourinho also has a squad large enough to handle the stresses and strains of the Europa League. Burnley are always tough to beat but keeping a clean sheet against the incandescent partnership of Harry Kane and Heung-min Son feels an impossible task for any side. Graham Searles
