Tottenham vs Burnley

This was Tottenham Hotspur’s joint-biggest MD1 victory in the Premier League, alongside their 4-1 win over Southampton in 2022-23.

Tottenham have faced Burnley more often than they have any other side on home soil in the Premier League without ever losing (P10 W9 D1).

Burnley conceded three goals in this game having gone through the entirety of last season’s Championship campaign without conceding more than a single goal.

Tottenham Hotspur have won eight of their nine Premier League home games against Burnley (D1), only failing to take all three points in a 1-1 draw in August 2017, under Mauricio Pochettino.

This is just the second time Burnley are starting a Premier League campaign with a game in London, previously beating reigning champions Chelsea 3-2 at Stamford Bridge in 2017-18.

Tottenham Hotspur will open a Premier League campaign at home to a promoted team for the third time, with the previous two both ending in 3-1 victories – v Ipswich Town in 2000-01 and Aston Villa in 2019-20.

Burnley have lost their opening match in each of their last three Premier League campaigns, with their last victory coming in 2019-20 against Southampton (3-0).

Tottenham haven’t kept a clean sheet in any of their last 13 Premier League games, last having a longer run between August and December 2010 (17).
