Predicted Tottenham XI to face Burnley in the FA Cup – Three changes from Postecoglou

Tottenham Hotspur face Burnley in the FA Cup this evening as they look to keep their dreams of winning a domestic cup this season alive. 

With Heung-min Son, Pape Matar Sarr and Yves Bissouma jetting off on international duty, as well as Dejan Kulusevski returning from suspension, Ange Postecoglou is guaranteed to make some changes.

We believe that will start with his choice of goalkeeper, with Fraser Forster getting a run out between the sticks in place of the impressive Guglielmo Vicario.

The back four remains the same from the 3-1 win over Bournemouth, with Ben Davies and Emerson Royal starting in the middle and Destiny Udogie and Pedro Porro playing as inverted full-backs.

In the centre of the park, Rodrigo Bentancur is fit enough to start once more, this time partnered by Oliver Skipp and Giovani Lo Celso – the latter of whom starred against the Cherries last time out.

Up front, with no captain Son, Brennan Johnson starts on the left, with Kulusevski on the right and Richarlison the main man down the middle. Ben Davies is likely to wear the armband in place of Son, Maddison and Romero.
