    Tottenham

    Tottenham make three changes from the win over Leicester before the international break. Harry Kane is captain for the first time, Hugo Lloris is injured, Andros Townsend misses out and Paulinho makes a rare start.

  3. Spurs on the up?published at 12:27 British Summer Time 5 April 2015

    Tottenham's Ryan Mason believes his breakthrough alongside team-mate Harry Kane proves home-grown talent can prosper at the highest level.

    The pair both came through the Spurs academy, as well as the England Under-21 set-up, and they made their full international debuts last week.

    Striker Kane, 21, has also scored 29 goals in 43 games for Spurs.

    "It's important to bring young players through if they're good enough," said 23-year-old midfielder Mason.

    "You look at the Germans and the Spanish, they are not better than us technically. It is just they get given the opportunity younger in their league, so then they get the opportunity to come and play here.

    "I understand there is a lot of pressure on managers to get instant results, but English players know the league, and for them to be given the opportunity and the time as well, there is plenty of talent out there."

  4. Dyche for England?published at 12:22 British Summer Time 5 April 2015

    Burnley boss Sean Dyche could manage England in the future, says Clarets defender Michael Duff.

    Dyche, 43 and Burnley manager since October 2012, led them to promotion to the Premier League last season.

    Asked if Dyche could manage the national team, Duff said: "He's managed to get the best out of us - why not?

    "Most of our players have played most of their careers in the Championship or lower. We are up against multi-million pound squads and alive and kicking."

  5. STAT ATTACKpublished at 12:20 British Summer Time 5 April 2015

    The Clarets have scored just 14 goals in 15 Premier League home games this season, while Spurs have kept just one clean sheet in their last 13 Premier League away matches. Goals on the cards?

    This will be the fourth meeting between these two sides this season after Spurs won their home league fixture and also won at home in the replay after a draw at Turf Moor in the FA Cup.

    Brian Cox

    Tim Reid from Widnes: "My favourite goal was back in the early nineties when I played for Oldham Hulmeians. I picked up the ball on the edge of my own box, took it all the way up the right wing where I did a quick one - two on the edge of their box, receiving the ball back on the left of my chest before volleying it into the top right corner. This was made all the more memorable as my teammate who played the one - two was Brian Cox (Except he's referred to as Professor these days)."

    The margin for Tottenham error is decreasing by the week. Their defeat, and the manner of it, at Manchester United was a setback.

    Quite simply they have to maintain their momentum to keep pace with the Champions League contenders.

    If you had said to the Clarets boss last August that they would be only a point from safety with eight games to go, he would certainly have taken the current scenario. Remember, they didn't win any of their opening ten matches.

    They have the spirit and fight to take it to the wire; whether they have the quality remains to be seen. Goal scoring remains a concern - just 26 all season.
