Burnley v Tottenham

Live on BT Sport at 5:30pm

When the fixtures were drawn way back in the summer, who could possibly have predicted that Burnley would be above Spurs in the table when we reached this fixture?

We are at the half-way point in the season, and Burnley are a point better off than the North London side, although their goal difference is not quite as strong. Nevertheless, there is every reason to suspect they can give Spurs a good fight here, having lost at home just twice all season.

One of those defeats came to Arsenal, but it was a heartbreaking late goal which settled matters 1-0 that day, and they will hope to give Spurs a similarly close game.

Sean Dyche will set his side up to frustrate, and it's worth noting that of the last six they have played against the Big 5 over the past two seasons, all bar one have ended up with Under 2.5 Goals.

The odds of 6/1 on a Burnley win feel too long in this given that Spurs have only won once in seven, but if Burnley are to come away on top of this one, it feels pretty likely they will do so by a tight margin. With that in mind, we're going to split stakes across three outcomes.
