Tottenham vs Burnley prediction: How will Premier League fixture play out?

05/15/2022

Burnley will be safe if they win their remaining three Premier League games

Burnley FC strive to take a step towards Premier League surival as they travel to take on Tottenham Hotspur.

Mike Jackson has done a sterling job in caretaker charge after the departure of Sean Dyche, and a win against top-four chasing Spurs would be a significant boost to the club’s hopes of staying up.

With three fixtures in the final seven days of the season, Burnley have a game in hand on Leeds, who sit level on points with Jackson’s side.

Their hosts, meanwhile, also need a win to climb above Arsenal, who do not play until Monday night and remain in pole position for a Champions League place despite derby defeat on Thursday.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the fixture:

Burnley are facing something of an end-of-season injury crisis, with Matej Vydra joining Ben Mee,Johann Berg Gudmundsson and Ashley Westwood on the sidelines, with Jay Rodriguez yet to return from hamstring bother. Though Maxwell Cornet and Erik Pieters returned last weekend, there is now also concern over James Tarkowski, who was forced off early in the second half against Aston Villa.

Predicted Line-ups

Tottenham XI: Lloris; Sanchez, Dier, Davies; Royal, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Sessegnon; Kulusevski, Kane, Son.

Burnley XI: Pope; Roberts, Long, Collins, Taylor; McNeil, Cork, Brownhill, Cornet; Weghorst, Barnes.

Odds

Tottenham win 4/11

Draw 23/5

Burnley win 9/1
