Tottenham Hotspur welcome Burnley to Wembley Stadium for their second consecutive home game in the Premier League.

Burnley are tied in points with Spurs and are just hoping to survive for another season in the Premier League.

No, really, Wembley isn’t cursed.
Tottenham lost another one at Wembley last weekend, and another harsh one to Chelsea at the same time, and the old #narratives kept on flowing. But Spurs are not a bad team, and they are going to win at Wembley sooner or later. We prefer sooner.
Burnley had a very surprising win over nine-man Chelsea in week one, but dropped their first home game to West Brom last week. They are not especially great, but have already proven that they can surprise on their day. Spurs should not expect a walk in the park but they should expect a result.
For Tottenham, the big news ahead of the match was the availability of new signing Davinson Sanchez, who received his work permit and could play today at Wembley. However, we suspect that Poch will bring him in gradually and will at most get a place on the bench against the Clarets. Elsewhere, it will be a first-choice 11 for Tottenham.
COYS!
