I think it really depends on the opposition, Spurs is a completely different game for them than Palace at home one week later.Playing for a draw when you're one loss away from being in the bottom 3 is a dicey old game to play.

They're 3 points above the relegation zone. Can they really afford to park the bus a team this stage of the season?
I'm hoping the early kick off will work in our favour. A quiet crowd, take the sting out of them in the first 10 minutes and nick a couple of goals. I don't think it's a bad time to play them in all honesty
Scenes if he does.Last time we played Burnley away Sissoko got an assist.
I reckon he scores on Saturday.

Worth noting they have Newcastle 3 days after they play us.
HUGE game for them and it wouldn't surprise me if they have an eye on that game. We've got 4 days rest before we play Chelsea (and they have a days less rest anyway, so different circumstance for us)..
They absolutely will sit back and defend, no doubt about it, that's all they're good at - but I think we'll get the win by 2 or more goals to be honest. We'll score early or get a penalty.
Let's hope that Kane has come off the bench to dispatch the penalty if this is the case! Don't think I can deal with another penalty miss!!
Or a Lamela rabona...Reckon Son would smash one in on this form to be fair.
ochsulk:not only do we have to contend with Burnleys negative tactics - the ref is Mike fucking Dean !!!

Well he likes giving penalties, so he can dramatically point to the spot - let's hope it's in our favour!not only do we have to contend with Burnleys negative tactics - the ref is Mike fucking Dean !!!
