When in possession, Koleosho has demonstrated great skill; this time, he advanced down the left side of the field and defeated Porro. The opportunity is lost when the winger sneaks a pass into Amdouni's feet but he is unable to control it.

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
16:12

Despite having excellent possession, Burnley did not generate many worthwhile chances after scoring first. Amdouni attempted to give the hosts the lead back with a shot from outside the box, but it missed the target. Tottenham, after a sluggish start, have been the superior team. Maddison waited a while to participate, but he has since become an important element of their assault and has done fantastic work to link the midfield with the attack. Solomon has also hampered Roberts' progress somewhat with his brisk gait.

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:57

Tottenham lost the advantage after just four minutes due to a Romero powerful strike. Foster scored Burnley's second goal of the game, getting on the end of a feed from Koleosho and hammering the ball in. Their advantage, though, only lasted for 12 minutes. Porro set Son free on the break, and the Spurs captain quickly exchanged passes with Solomon before attempting to chip the ball over the goal line at Old Trafford. Prior to Romeo scoring late in the half, the goalkeeper stopped a shot by Maddison. The center-back capitalized on a sloppy clearing at the edge of the box by driving his shot into the top corner. The goal was upheld despite a brief offside VAR assessment.

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:45

Jóhann Berg Gumundsson receives a warning

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley

Dejan Kulusevski is issued a warning.

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:40

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:39

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:37

CHANCE! Madison is beginning to participate in the game. He enters the box from the left wing and quickly exchanges passes with Sarr. After that, the England international fires a shot across the goal and toward the bottom corner, but Trafford dives down to block it.

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:36

Solomon's throughball for a corner is pushed out by Dakhil. Then Madison curls a cross into the box, but it is deflected.

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:34

Solomon evades Roberts on the left and sprints toward the ball before launching a threatening cross into the area. It quickly moves beyond Trafford and away from peril. Someone may have had a straightforward finish if they had surged into the middle.

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:32

Tottenham is beginning to exert pressure. Maddison tries to find room inside the box, but the Burnley defense prevents him from getting a shot off. Before Son returns it to Sarr, he joins forces with Soloman. Maddison is unable to score on the rebound after the midfielder's low attempt is blocked.

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:29

Pape Matar Sarr received a warning.

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:28

After conceding, Burnley may have been excused for retreating, but ever since Tottenham scored the equalizer, Burnley has looked the superior team. They've got a handful of scoring chances, but they've had trouble making the correct last pass.

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:27

On the left wing, Koleosho is in possession of the ball and drives inside. The winger advances to the centre of the box and slides a pass to Foster, whose shot is stopped by Vicario. The offside flag is then raised.

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:25

Since joining Tottenham from Leicester in the summer, Maddison has played a significant role in the team, but he is finding it difficult to have an impact on this match. He has only received eight touches.

Tottenham is in the lead and appears to have the best chance of scoring again. When Solomon has the ball on the left, he has the opportunity to deliver a straightforward pass to Maddison, who overlaps him, but instead sends it out for a goal kick.

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:21

Tottenham has scored in each of its last 16 Premier League games, scoring in just one of their last 23 games. The goal for Spurs is to win three straight league games for the first time since May/August 2022 (four).

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
15:13

Since taking over as manager of Burnley before the beginning of last season, Kompany has made a lot of adjustments to the team. In their two Premier League games so far this season, they've fielded the two average starting XIs with the youngest ages (23y 206d against Manchester City and 23y 340d against Aston Villa), giving them an overall average of 23y 273d. The Clarets had the second-oldest starting lineups on average (28y 343d) during their final Premier League season in 2021–22.

Muric, Brownhill, Redmond, Larsen, Rodriguez, Manuel, and Delcroix are among the players that move to the bench, leaving only center back O'Shea and winger Gudmundsson in their starting positions. Vitinho, Ramsey, and Ekdal are all out injured. It is necessary to recall Trafford, Beyer, Roberts, Berge, Doster, Cullen, Amdouni, and Koleosho.

Tottenham, who was upset by their early exit from the EFL Cup after falling to Fulham on penalties in the second round, will be disappointed. Ange Postecoglou, the team's new manager, will be pleased with how the Premier League season has started, with his team earning seven points from their first three games. Before claiming back-to-back victories over Manchester United and Bournemouth, the Lilywhites' season began with a 2-2 draw against Brentford. For the first time since May 2022, Spurs will be attempting to record a third straight shutout after keeping clean sheets in their last two games. Tottenham is now in third place but if they win and other outcomes go their way, they might end the day in first place.

Spurs versus. Tottenham Hotspur - Burnley
14:30

In an effort to earn their first points of the year, defending champions Burnley will host their third straight Premier League game. The team led by Vincent Kompany was soundly defeated in their inaugural game, falling to reigning champions Manchester City 3-0 before taking a 16-day hiatus from the league. Their second game, against Luton Town, was originally scheduled, but it was canceled because Kenilworth Road was not prepared. Upon their return, the Clarets were easily defeated by European contenders Aston Villa, with Matty Cash scoring twice and Moussa Diaby scoring once to lead Unai Emery's team to a 3-1 victory. Burnley, who are now in the relegation zone, will take heart from their narrow EFL Cup victory against Nottingham Forest during the previous week. Salford City will be their opponent in the third round.
