Burnley up next for Tottenham
Tottenham’s next outing will see them face off with Burnley on Wednesday the 23rd of February.
The tie is a must-win for Spurs, as they look to gain some ground on the rest of the Europe-chasing sides.
Tottenham are currently three points behind both Arsenal and West Ham in the Premier League table. However, they do have three games in hand on the Hammers and two on Manchester United, which will soon be three after the Red Devils face Leeds on Sunday.
Burnley, meanwhile, have climbed off the bottom of the table following a 3-0 win over Brighton. But the Clarets have still won just two league games all season.
