Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-1
Tottenham
Tottenham will look to make amends for a 1-0 loss to West Ham when they take on Burnley in the EFL Cup last 16 on Wednesday evening. Spurs have slim chances of winning the Premier League, and, no doubt, they will give 100% to go all the way in cup competitions. Harry Kane should keep his place up front, with Lo Celso and Bergwijn pushing for a start. Sessegnon and Doherty should be the only absentees in the away side.
The Clarets, on the other hand, did well to hold Southampton to a 2-2 draw in their last league match. Burnley booked their place in the EFL Cup last 16 by beating Rochdale 4-1, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry in Wednesday’s clash. Anyhow, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw as Burnley are tough to beat at home. Fit-again defender Ben Mee should play some part in the EFL Cup game, while midfielder Dale Stephens remains in the recovery room.
