Tottenham host Burnley on Sunday afternoon at White Hart Lane and our resident Lilywhites fans here in the Transfer Tavern are quietly confident they can get a victory.

With all due respect to the Clarets they have not been the best team away from home this season and with Spurs looking to keep pace at the top of the Premier League many here by the bar can only see one result.

Of course, football isn’t as easy as that and the men from The Lane will still need to put in a good performance to ensure they get the three points against Sean Dyche’s men.

One thing you’ll always get from Burnley is work rate and commitment so if Spurs do not match that they’ll be facing a potential shock in front of their own supporters.

Our landlord thinks they’ll do a professional job, though, and reckons this line up will help see them take victory…

GK: Hugo Lloris

The French ‘keeper is one of the best in the league and will always start when fit.

He’ll be hoping for a quiet day at the office against the Clarets.

RB: Kyle Walker

We may see Pochettino rotate his full-backs over this Christmas period but our landlord reckons Walker will get the nod here.

Kieran Trippier could be in line for a start soon.

CB: Toby Alderweireld

The Belgian defender is back and our resident Lilywhites are so pleased to see him back in the side.

The club look a far more solid outfit with him around alongside his compatriot Jan Vertonghen.

CB: Jan Vertonghen

Vertonghen must be happy to see his old team-mate Alderweireld back alongside him more than most.

He’s a good defender in his own right but really steps up a gear when he’s in there with his countryman.

LB: Danny Rose

Like Walker he could see himself come out of the team at times over Christmas but our landlord again feels he’ll start for this one.

The two full-backs will need to be at their flying best to break down a likely defensive Burnley team.

CDM: Victor Wanyama

The former Southampton man has been a top signing for Spurs this season and should start once again.

He’s the kind of player that just doesn’t ever seem to need a rest no matter how many games there are.

CDM: Eric Dier

With Mousa Dembele getting a knock earlier this week we could see Eric Dier come back into the midfield fold.

He’s been missing a bit more this season with Wanyama around so he’ll want to put in a good shift.

RAM: Christian Eriksen

Eriksen needs to carry on with his recent good form if Spurs are to keep challenging.

If he drifts out of games like he did earlier in the year, though, he’ll need to be replaced.

CAM: Dele Alli

For our landlord Alli still has a point to prove this season.

He’s obviously a good player but he’s still got a bit to do this year to show he can kick on from the last campaign.

LAM: Heung-Min Son

Son has been pretty good at times this season with a number of fine goals.

The challenge for him now is to start doing it on a far more regular basis to see him become a key player.

ST: Harry Kane

This man, however, is a key player.

If Spurs want to win this game Kane needs to be on top form and help break down a Burnley defence that’d be likely happy with a draw. We’re all intrigued to see what he can do.
