Tottenham confirmed team vs Burnley: Sergio Reguilon back on the bench but no Gollini among subs

Antonio Conte has named an unchanged Tottenham Hotspur team as they take on Burnley at Turf Moor in the Premier League.

The Italian had hinted that he might have to make changes to his Spurs side after their exertions in the 3-2 victory at the champions Manchester City

Spurs put in one of their best performances in a long time not only in defence but also with their attacking movement at the Etihad Stadium.

In the Conte has decided to stick with the starting XI that impressed at the Etihad Stadium.

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Rodrigo Bentancur continue in the centre of the pitch with Harry Winks remaining on the bench and Oliver Skipp yet to return after his groin injury was complicated by an infection.

Japhet Tanganga also remains out with his knee injury but Sergio Reguilon is back on the bench following his recovery from Covid.

Ryan Sessegnon gained plenty of praise from Conte on Tuesday and makes a third consecutive start at left wing-back.

Dejan Kulusevski starts again after his goal and dramatic late assist for Harry Kane, who took a big whack in the back himself late on but Conte made it very clear to football.london would still start the match.

Brandon Austin takes his spot on the bench with Pierluigi Gollini missing out through illness, which is not believed to be Covid-related.

Here is the team Conte has selected:

Lloris; Romero, Dier, Davies; Emerson, Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Sessegnon; Kulusevski, Kane, Son.

Subs: Austin, Rodon, Sanchez, Doherty, Reguilon, White, Hojbjerg, Bergwijn, Lucas.
