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

At the end, this was not routine win for Tottenham Hotspurs. Soldado showed that he is one of biggest misses of Tottenhams management. He had 2 assists but again managed to miss wide open goal. One player of world class can not afford that to himself. Burnley plays very well and on other hand in FA Cup game where one game...

For me this year Tottenham is great. They play well special at home and I enjoy watch them. They won this match easy despite two early goals which they concede in first 10 minutes. They score 4 goals after that and go in next round of FA cup. In premier league they are not good enough to fight for title but here in FA cup...

As sharp said Burnley is very pleasant surprise this season in Premier League, and on the other side Tottenham is not the same club since Bale left. They have strong team but they just can't find the rhythm. Anyway, in this FA Cup game I think we all know "who is who", so I think that Tottenham will win tonight, maybe not...

They have strong team but they just can't find the rhythm. Anyway, in this FA Cup game I think we all know "who is who", so I think that Tottenham will win tonight, maybe not too easy, but they will. Also I think that Pochettino might not play with "first team" tonight.

This season Tottenham does not have constantly bad or good results , they play varies too much , you never know what to expect from them , few weeks ago they demolished Chelsea one of the Premier league best clubs and next week they played with Burnley 1-1. They are very unpredictable but in tonight clash i expect them...

Burnley are one of the pleasant surprises this season in the Premier League. Everybody thought including me that they will be for shore one of the three bottom teams in the end of season, but not so shore now. Of course Spurs are the favourites in the game but I don't think that eventual Burnley loss will be a disaster,...

Everybody thought including me that they will be for shore one of the three bottom teams in the end of season, but not so shore now. Of course Spurs are the favourites in the game but I don't think that eventual Burnley loss will be a disaster, because the more important thing for them will be to avoid relegation and they should concentrate on that.
