The Burnleys are here (in the morning).
Whom:
Burnley vs. Tottenham Hotspur
What:
EPL match number 26 for Burnley
Where:
Tottenham. London, right? Neighborhood or something?
When:
8:00 AM American Central Standard Time
How to Watch:
NBCSN
What’s at Stake:
Burnley’s trying to steal a point or three on the road against a top-half club. If they can pull it off, they’ll widen their respective gaps with Brighton and Newcastle (two points each entering the match) and potentially inflate the cushion between themselves and relegation, which sits at six points but could shrink when Fulham plays Crystal Palace.
Best possible position for the Clarets at weekend’s end? If they win and Southampton loses or draws, Burnley will rise to 14th in the table.
The Odds:
NBC says PointsBet says Tottenham’s at -200, Burnley’s at +550, and a draw’s at +300. So something like a 35% chance the lads nab a point or more.
Burnley News:
Looks like Ashley Barnes and Jóhann Berg Guðmundsson are out, with a whole bunch of guys—including all three non-Barnes strikers—questionable.

Nothing new that I could find.
