Tottenham vs Burnley: FA Cup prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h, odds today
Tottenham entertain Burnley tonight as their latest FA Cup campaign kicks off.
The competition represents the club's best opportunity of ending a 16-year wait for silverware, though Ange Postecoglou and his players will not yet have given up on a Premier League title charge.
Spurs are weakened ahead of this third-round clash by the departure of Heung-min Son to the Asian Cup, with their captain potentially missing for more than a month with midfielders Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr also jetting out to the Africa Cup of Nations.

Tottenham vs Burnley prediction
Tottenham continue to deliver in attack, with Postecoglou's side scoring in every match so far this season, though that will be tested with Son unavailable.
They have been far from convincing at the back in recent matches, so Burnley will believe they can hurt Spurs, but the home side should have more than enough to come through another entertaining encounter.
Tottenham to win, 3-1.
