Tottenham vs Burnley Preview & Prediction (8pm)
Burnley head to the English capital off the back of two successive defeats in the Premier League for an FA Cup third round matchup against a Tottenham side who will be without a number of key players due to the African Cup of Nations and the Asian Cup.
Club captain Heung-min Son, Pape Sarr and Yves Bissouma comprise Spurs’ list of unavailable players due to international duty, meanwhile the Clarets’ squad is not impacted by the winter tournaments.
Last time out, Vincent Kompany’s side put up a spirited performance against high-flying Aston Villa despite being down to 10-men, but fell to a narrow 3-2 defeat in the dying minutes, following on from their 2-0 loss to Liverpool on Boxing Day.
Tottenham on the other hand, bounced back from their 4-2 defeat to Brighton last week with a 3-1 win over Bournemouth at home on New Year’s Eve. That was Ange Postecoglou‘s side’s fourth win in their last five matches – their best run of form since the end of October.
We at SportsLens anticipate another disappointing afternoon for the visiting supporters, and are backing the hosts to build on their strong form as of late by comfortably booking their spot in the last-16 with a 3-1 triumph.
Prediction: Tottenham 3-1 Burnley

Tottenham vs Burnley Betting Tips
- Tottenham Half Time/Full Time @ 5/4
- Brennan Johnson To Score Anytime @ 7/4
- Combined Bet Builder Odds @ 10/3
Tottenham vs Burnley Betting Tip 1: Tottenham Half Time/Full Time @ 5/4
Our first tip for your Friday night Tottenham vs Burnley FA Cup bet builder is to back Spurs to lead the tie at both half time and full time, priced by leading UK betting sites at 5/4.
The North Londoners have led at the break as well as at the full time whistle in four of their last five matches, and did so in their last meeting against the Clarets in September when they won 5-2 in the league in Gameweek 3.
Burnley’s form hasn’t picked up at all since then really, not even in cup competitons – as they exited the Carabao Cup in the fourth round after being battered 3-0 by Everton in early November.
We at SportsLens expect the hosts to make slight work of the out-of-form Clarets, and to do so in dominant fashion on both sides of the half time whistle.
Tottenham vs Burnley Betting Tip 2: Brennan Johnson To Score Anytime @ 7/4
Wales international winger Brennan Johnson has firmly cemented his place in the Tottenham line-up since arriving from Nottingham Forest in the summer, typically lining up in attack on the right-hand side alongside Dejan Kulusevski, Son and Richarlison.
Of course, Son won’t be involved for the next few weeks at the very minimum, therefore the onus will be placed on other members of the squad to step up with contributions in front of goal.
We at SportsLens are backing Johnson to be one of those to up his game in the South Korean’s absence. The 22-year-old has scored just once in his 14 appearances for Spurs this term, but has chipped in with three assists in his last seven matches – including last time out against Bournemouth.
Priced by leading UK bookmakers at 7/4, you can back the £47.5 million man to go one better this time around by scoring at anytime against the struggling Clarets at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Friday evening.
