Burnley vs Tottenham prediction 24.01.2026 | Premier League

Burnley returns to Turf Moor with spirits raised by an unlikely 1:1 draw against Liverpool at Anfield last weekend. Marcus Edwards first goals of the season secured a point for Scott Parker's side. 

Despite that fine display, Burnley remains in serious relegation trouble. The Clarets find themselves eight points short of safety with just 16 games still to play.

Now winless in 13 EPL matches, Parker's side have shown some fight, particularly in home fixtures. Seven of their last nine matches, including four of their last five games at Turf Moor finished with both teams scoring.

Head coach Parker has seven expected absentees on Saturday. Zeki Amdouni, Zian Flemming, Mike Trésor, Connor Roberts, Josh Cullen and Jordan Beyer are all ruled out, while Joe Worrall is listed as doubtful.

Tottenham make the trip to Turf Moor after a much-needed victory against Borussia Dortmund earlier this week. Wilson Odobert turned in a fine display, setting up both goals as the Lilywhites eased to victory in London.

While impressive in their Champions League performances - Spurs sit fifth in the 36-team league heading into the final matchday - their domestic results have been far less impressive. Thomas Frank's side failed to win six of seven previous EPL games, while they also suffered an FA Cup reversal at the hands of Aston Villa.

A lack of clean sheets remains a big issue for Tottenham in the Premier League. Frank's side conceded at least one goal in 12 of their last 15 domestic fixtures. Four of their five most recent matches before the Dortmund game finished with both teams on the scoresheet.

Head coach Frank remains unable to call on several first team players this weekend. Dejan Kulusevski, Mohammed Kudus, Richarlison, Ben Davies, James Maddison, Rodrigo Bentancur, Pape Matar Sarr and Lucas Bergvall are all ruled out, while João Palhinha is listed as doubtful.

Mickey van de Ven is available after serving a Champions League suspension against Dortmund.
