Spurs head up north this afternoon looking to put their Carabao Cup exit behind them as soon as possible. A disjointed performance after multiple changes saw Spurs crash out on penalties to Fulham, and Ange Postecoglou will be keen to make amends at the first opportunity after an otherwise fine start to the season with two wins and a draw from three games.
Burnley have had an opposing start to the season, having lost both of their opening Premier League fixtures, against Manchester City and Aston Villa, but won away at Nottingham Forest in the cup last time out. Vincent Kompany will hope to build momentum in front of the Clarets fans against a club that explored hiring the former defender before appointing Postecoglou.
Postecoglou has sprung a surprise by dropping Richarlison, as Manor Solomon comes in for his first start. There will be no debut for new £47million signing Brennan Johnson after he was not registered in time.

Live updates
65min: Hojbjerg and Perisic coming on with 25 minutes to play.
GOAL!
63min: Spurs cannot stop scoring! They look dangerous every time they have the ball and Solomon easily ducks into the area and lays it on a plate for Son to side-foot home.
Dom’s view
Tottenham well in control now since Maddison extended their lead to 3-1 with that stunning, curling strike. Burnley will need to come up with something very special to avoid a home defeat here now.
60min: Amdouni makes way for Redmond.
59min: Redmond is being readied by Burnley.
56min: Burnley almost hit back immediately as Foster gets around Romero and drills a shot at goal, but Vicario tips it over the ball. Superb.
GOAL!
54min: A third goal for Spurs and another stunner! Maddison has all the time in the world to shape a shot around Trafford from the edge of the area.
51min: Burnley are seeing much more of the ball, their change of shape helping them once in possession, but Spurs are standing firm so far.
Spurs are yet to concede in the second half of a game this season.
48min: Spurs should score! Burnley’s back five is immediately tested with a simple ball around the corner from Kulusevski to Son, but the forward’s touch is too heavy and allows Trafford to rush out and smother.
A huge chance.
47min: Burnley have gone with a back five when out of possession – which is quite a lot – so are looking to hit Spurs on the counter.
