Tottenham XI vs Burnley: Starting lineup, confirmed team news and injury latest for Premier League today

Tottenham are without Richarlison for today’s Premier League clash with Burnley.

The forward scored one and assisted another from the bench against Liverpool last weekend, but has since been left out of Brazil’s squad for this summer’s Copa America due to an unspecified injury.

Brazil coach Dorival Jr said: “Richarlison has a calf injury. It has not yet been made official by the club, but we contacted the player and he informed us."
