Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Burnley

Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham Hotspur's injury and suspension news ahead of their FA Cup third-round tie with Burnley.

Tottenham Hotspur are back in action on Friday evening when they play host to Burnley in the FA Cup third round.

Ange Postecoglou has witnessed his team put together a strong run in the Premier League of late, accumulating 12 points from a possible 15 over the Christmas and New Year period.

While the North Londoners sit in fifth place in the table, they have a strong desire to lift silverware in this competition, albeit having to start their campaign without a wide array of senior players.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up their latest injury and suspension news ahead of welcoming Burnley to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
