Following FA Cup action in midweek the Premier League resumes on Saturday and there are several matches to enjoy. One of which takes place at Turf Moor as Burnley host Tottenham Hotspur.
Burnley begin the weekend in 9th place in the Premier League on 38 points and a win could take them above Tottenham Hotspur who are currently on 40 points.
Burnley come into the game having been held to a 0-0 draw at Newcastle United in their previous Premier League match last weekend. That result means they are undefeated in their last 4 matches in all competitions and in each of their last 6 in the Premier League. In the Premier League there have been victories at home over Leicester City and Bournemouth plus away wins at Manchester United and Southampton.
Trends show Burnley have been very good defensively in recent matches and have kept a clean sheet in 4 of their 6 most recent games in all competitions. However, they have been entertaining to watch at home and 5 of their last 6 matches at Turf Moor have seen over 2.5 goals scored.
Burnley have managed to score two or more goals in 4 of their last 6 Premier League games including 2 of their last 3 at home.
Tottenham Hotspur played in the FA Cup on Wednesday night but were eliminated from the competition by Norwich City. Tottenham Hotspur took the lead in the game in the first half but Norwich City equalised and took the match to a penalty shootout which they won.
That result means Tottenham Hotspur have lost each of their last 4 games in all competitions. In addition to the FA Cup defeat Tottenham Hotspur have lost at home against RB Leipzig in the Champions League and Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League plus tasted an away defeat in the Premier League against Chelsea.
You must go back to the 16th of February to find the last time they won a match and that was away against Aston Villa in the Premier League. Tottenham Hotspur have a poor away record and trends show they have won just 3 of their last 20 away matches in Premier League. Both teams have scored in 9 of their last 11 away games in all competitions.
Team news and Burnley have three doubts ahead of the game as Ashley Barnes, Johann Berg Gudmundsson and Matthew Lowton aim to prove their fitness.
Tottenham Hotspur are still without Harry Kane and Moussa Sissoko. Hugo Lloris, Juan Foyth and Heung-Min Son are battling their way back to fitness and could be involved.
Tottenham Hotspur are on a poor run of form and that could continue in this game. Burnley are on the way up and although they may struggle to keep a clean sheet the hosts have what it takes to win this match.
