Fixture Focus - Spurs (27 Aug 2017)

Tottenham Hotspur vs Burnley FC

The two teams that had met Chelsea in the first two games of the league are now meeting each other.

Kane is looking to break his duck of "not scoring in August" in this game. Spurs has no other short term injury concerns, which means Pochettino would have to whole squad to choose and deploy.

Burnley are off to a good start this season, with 1 win (against Chelsea) and 1 loss, same record as Spurs.

Some trivia - Wembley, Spurs' temporary home ground, has not been kind to their current hosts ever since the win against Chelsea in the League Cup final in 2008. Since then, out of 8 games, Spurs only registered 1 win and 1 draw. Hope Spurs will break this duck as well.

COYS!
