Tottenham Hotspur head coach Antonio Conte is hoping supporters can recreate the same atmosphere in the north London derby for Sunday’s clash with Burnley. Spurs blew the top four race wide open with a 3-0 win over Arsenal on Thursday night, which makes this weekend’s home match with the Clarets equally as important.
Conte’s side can move two points ahead of Arsenal before the Gunners make the Monday night trip to Newcastle United. But the game at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is equally as important for Burnley, as they can take a giant step towards safety with a win before Leeds United host Brighton at Elland Road.
The Clarets sit level on points with Leeds having played a game less, but boast a far superior goal difference, which could be the deciding factor at the end of the season. But despite Burnley’s added incentive after Leeds’ loss to Chelsea on Wednesday, they will come up against a Spurs side full of confidence ahead of their final two games of the season.
