Tottenham team news<\/p>\n
There are no fresh concerns from the Super Cup, but Tottenham enter the new season without James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski and Radu Dragusin. Destiny Udogie travelled to Udine with the squad but wasn’t involved, and it seems unlikely for him to a play a part on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Dominic Solanke returned from an ankle injury in the week, but Richarlison’s impressive performance against PSG means he’ll retain his place.<\/p>\n
Frank is likely to shift to a 4-2-3-1 here, with ex-Burnley winger Wilson Odobert or Brennan Johnson poised to replace Kevin Danso. The midfield could remain unchanged, but Frank is welcoming back Yves Bissouma. <\/p>\n
Tottenham predicted lineup vs Burnley: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Spence; Palhinha, Bentancur; Kudus, Sarr, Odobert; Richarlison.<\/p>\n
Burnley team news<\/p>\n
Parker’s Clarets are set to come to north London with a back five containing former Spurs full-back Kyle Walker, who could be a part of their back three. <\/p>\n
Martin Dubravka, Lesley Ugochukwu and Jaiden Anthony are set to be in from the start for their Burnley debuts, while Armando Broja should feature off the bench. Lyle Foster will lead the line on Saturday. <\/p>\n
Connor Roberts and Jordan Beyer were among those who picked up knocks in pre-season, but those two are seemingly ready to go for the start of the new season. Zeki Amdouni and Manuel Benson are long-term absentees. <\/p>\n
Burnley predicted lineup vs Tottenham: Dubravka; Sonne, Walker, Ekdal, Esteve, Haartman; Hannibal, Culler, Ugochukwu, Anthony; Foster.<\/p>\n
Tottenham vs Burnley score prediction<\/p>\n
Tottenham played exceptionally well on Wednesday, but Frank will know that their Premier League opener will be an entirely different game. While Spurs had the personnel to match a rusty PSG through outstanding defensive work, whether they can take the game to a defensively sound Burnley outfit is a different matter. <\/p>\n
The squad needs work, and in the absence of Maddison and Kulusevski, Frank’s side are set to toil on Saturday. <\/p>\n
It may take a set-piece or a bit of luck to get their campaign up and running. <\/p>\n
