Back FA Cup: Tottenham vs Burnley preview

Tottenham Hotspur take on Burnley at White Hart Lane on Wednesday in the replay of their third-round tie in the FA Cup. The two teams were locked in a 1-1 draw at Turf Moor earlier this month when Sam Vokes and Nacer Chadli scored.

Tottenham had a good run of results lately but that came to an end last weekend when they were defeated 2-1 at Crystal Palace. Burnley on the other hand are unbeaten in three matches, a streak that moved them one point clear of the relegation zone in the Premier League table.

Tottenham beat Burnley 2-1 in the Premier League last month, with goals from Harry Kane and Erik Lamela. The latter will not be available for Wednesday's match while Ryan Mason is also expected to miss out. Stephen Ward and Kevin Long remain sidelined for Burnley.

Probable line-ups:

Tottenham: Vorm - Walker, Fazio, Vertonghen, Rose - Dembele, Stambouli - Chadli, Eriksen, Lennon - Soldado

Burnley: Heaton - Mee, Shackell, Keane, Trippier - Boyd, Jones, Marney, Arfield - Barnes, Ings

My prediction: Tottenham to win 1-0.

Here are the odds for the match at Bet365:

Tottenham win - 1/2 Draw - 7/2 Burnley win - 13/2
