Pedro Porro scored his first goal of the season to put Tottenham Hotspur through to the fourth round of the FA Cup with a 1-0 victory over Burnley on Friday.

Eight-time FA Cup winners Spurs and Burnley looked destined for a replay before Porro broke the deadlock in the 78th minute of a drab game when he intercepted goalkeeper Arijanet Muric's throw, firing a rocket from long range into the top far corner.

The victory was relief for Ange Postecoglou's team, who were missing several key players to injury and international duty, including South Korea captain Son Heung-min at the Asian Cup, and Pape Matar Sarr and Yves Bissouma, who are both at the Africa Cup of Nations.

Burnley's best chance came in the first half when Zeki Amdouni received a clever flick just outside the six-yard box but took a poor first touch and launched the ball over the bar. They rarely threatened as Spurs found a way to grind out the win.

Postecoglou confirms Dier transfer stance as Spurs boss reveals injury blow

23:39 , Jonathan Gorrie

Ange Postecoglou answered "yes" when asked if Tottenham could still afford to lose Bayern Munich target Eric Dier this month after Ben Davies became the latest Spurs player to suffer a hamstring injury in the 1-0 win over Burnley in the FA Cup third-round.

Pedro Porro's screamer 12 minutes from time was enough for Spurs to progress on Friday night but it came at a cost, with Davies now expected to be sidelined.

Dier has agreed terms with Bayern Munich and is considered a serious option for the Bundesliga champions this month, and the 29-year-old was left out of the squad for Friday's win over the Clarets with Postecoglou insisting he was injured.

Tottenham into FA Cup fourth-round but concern remains for Postecoglou

22:44 , Jonathan Gorrie

Tottenham quickly felt the absence of captain and talisman Heung-min Son as they edged into the FA Cup fourth-round with a narrow 1-0 win over Burnley.

As the clocked ticked towards an unwanted replay at Turf Moor, Pedro Porro's screamer 12 minutes from time was enough for Spurs, the Spaniard arrowing a dipping effort inside the post from 25 yards.

It was one of those nights where Spurs needed a moment of inspiration as they laboured to make the breakthrough without Son, who could miss up the six weeks at the Asian Cup with South Korea.

Porro stunner sends Tottenham into FA Cup fourth round

22:21 , Jonathan Gorrie

Pedro Porro's late stunner sent Tottenham into the FA Cup fourth round at the expense of Burnley.

Spurs were far from vintage and a replay at Turf Moor appeared on the cards until Ange Postecoglou watched full-back Porro make the breakthrough with a superb strike in the 78th minute.

Tottenham player ratings: Porro shines but Richarlison struggles

22:13 , Jonathan Gorrie

Pedro Porro's wonder-strike 12 minutes from time booked Tottenham's place in the FA Cup fourth-round with a 1-0 home win over Burnley.

With an unwanted replay at Turf Moor beckoning, Porro's dipping effort from 25 yards crept inside the post to earn Spurs a deserved victory on the balance of play.

Ange Postecoglou's side missed absent captain Heung-min Son and lacked a cutting edge in the final third, with Brennan Johnson and Richarlison both missing chances.

Here's how we rated the Spurs players...

By this point in the night, Postecoglou would have hoped to be home and dry, and giving minutes to van de Ven and Sessegnon. Instead, it's Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg who is coming on, with the hosts 15 minutes from an unwanted replay at Turf Moor

Tottenham vs Burnley: Dan Kilpatrick at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

20:48 , Jonathan Gorrie

Another Tottenham FA Cup display lacking spark so far, despite Postecoglou going with a full strength team. Spurs have had their chances -- two apiece for Richarlison and Johnson -- but Burnley had the best opening of the first half, when Zeki Amdouni fired over, while Wilson Odobert tested Vicario.

It's gone flat here, both on and off the pitch. The first groans of frustration creep in as Johnson overhits a pass to Udogie. Spurs need to rediscover their spark.

Tottenham vs Burnley: CHANCE FOR SPRUS!

31 mins: Porro's deep cross finds Johnson at the back post but he can't get much control on his volley and the ball flies over.

Tottenham vs Burnley: Dan Kilpatrick at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

20:29 , Jonathan Gorrie

This is the first game for Richarlison as the undisputed leading man in Spurs' attack and the Brazilian is failing to sparkle so far. He has twice hit tame efforts towards goal and his link-up play has been a bit clunky. Spurs still on top but Burnley have had a couple of threatening moments.

Tottenham vs Burnley: Ange Postecoglou aware of trophy desire but warns FA Cup is not the 'holy grail'

18:52 , Jonathan Gorrie

Ange Postecoglou does not have to look far for evidence of what the FA Cup means to Tottenham.

When Postecoglou and his players are preparing for Friday night's third-round tie at home to Burnley, they will be in the company of legends: Gazza, Lineker and Mabbutt in 1991; Ricky Villa a decade earlier; Greaves and Blanchflower in the 1962 Final against the Clarets.

"The people who have had success at this club are rightly honoured," Postecoglou said ahead of the game. "If you walk around the home dressing room, those are the only pictures we have got up there; teams and individuals that have won things, because we know how important they are to this club.

Tottenham vs Burnley: Ivan Perisic has likely played final game for Spurs, says Ange Postecoglou

18:10 , Jonathan Gorrie

Ange Postecoglou says Ivan Perisic is unlikely to play for Tottenham again this season, suggesting the Croatian has made his final appearance for the club.

Perisic, 34, is out of contract in the summer and is not expected to be fit before the end of the campaign after undergoing surgery in September on a complex anterior cruciate ligament injury in his right knee, suffered in training.

Tottenham vs Burnley: Score prediction today

17:31 , Jonathan Gorrie

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.

Burnley team news vs Tottenham today

Burnley have Lyle Foster back and available after his absence due to mental health struggles, with the striker scoring against Aston Villa last time out.

Jordan Beyer limped off early in that match and won't play here for the Clarets, while Hjalmar Ekdal is expected to miss out again along with Luca Koleosho. Jack Cork needs a late fitness test.

Spurs will be without skipper Son, who has joined up with the South Korea squad ahead of the Asian Cup. Sarr will also be absent despite overcoming an injury scare, after being called up to the Senegal squad for the Africa Cup of Nations. Bissouma will also be at AFCON, with Mali, but is otherwise suspended.

Micky van de Ven is expected to be in the squad after training this week in a huge boost for Postecoglou, though James Maddison and Cristian Romero remain out along with Manor Solomon, Ivan Perisic and Ryan Sessegnon.

Alejo Veliz is facing a couple of months out with a knee injury suffered against Bournemouth, though Dejan Kulusevski is back from suspension.
