Tottenham Hotspur travel to Turf Moor on Saturday to take on Burnley in their latest Premier League clash, and Spurs will be hoping to get back to winning ways after losing heavily to Manchester City last time out.

Burnley are currently one point and one place better off than Tottenham and they will be desperate to move four points clear of the North London club prior to Christmas.

In early team news, Tottenham are without Victor Wanyama and Toby Alderweireld but they have an otherwise clean bill of health, with centre-back Davinson Sanchez returning after his three-match suspension.

As for Burnley, they cannot call on Tom Heaton, Dean Marney, Jonathan Walters or Robbie Brady, while Stephen Ward is rated at 75 per cent to recover from a knee injury in time for this clash.

With all that in mind, here is how we expect Tottenham to line up against Burnley on Saturday afternoon:
