Put the ketchup aside! Sunday lunch will be spoiled. Good evening and welcome to our live blog about Tottenham Hotspur’s visit to Burnley The match will start at 2pm and this is one of five Premier League games on a bright, cold Sunday.

Tottenham Hotspur, under the guidance of Antonio Conte, started the day in seventh place, resplendent from a humiliating defeat in the Europa League against Slovenian NS Moura. You might say it’s too insulting to be in competition. Then he said:

“I have to be honest and tell you that after three and a half weeks, I am starting to understand the situation. I can tell you the situation is not simple. It is not simple because at this moment certainly the level Tottenham is not very high.”

Either it’s an honest evaluation, or get your excuses first, depending on how you see it. he added:

“There is an important gap between the top teams in England. We must not be afraid of this. I am here to work, here to improve the situation. I know that at this moment we need to have patience and time and I am here because I know there are problems to solve.”

“I’m not a magician. After three weeks, I’ve found players who want to work and have a great commitment but sometimes it just isn’t enough.”

Here, Telegraph football writer Sam Dean takes stock of players who Conte might think aren’t ready to scratch. And there are some big names on that list, I’ll tell you what.

His team, problems or otherwise, starts the day in seventh place. Their hosts, Burnley, have concerns of their own. They start the day in the relegation zones and will have to score today without three of their top players.

Ashley Barnes tore a muscle in his thigh, while James Tarkowski and Ashley Westwood are suspended for their fifth booking of the season.

We’ll find out who Shawn Dycke picks and all the news from Burnley vs Tottenham at 1pm. Thanks for joining us, and we hope we have an action packed game.
