Tottenham v Burnley: match preview

Tottenham need to beat Burnley. A team with their talent should be higher than ninth and José Mourinho should be able to extract more than his side are currently giving him. Sean Dyche presents a nightmare for Mourinho. An expert at sitting back and stealing victories means Tottenham have to play on the front foot. Mourinho will be taking notes on Sunday if Burnley snatch a result. Any points picked up would be a boost to Burnley’s survival ambitions. Graham Searles
