Burnley vs Tottenham - Barnes nearing return but will miss Tottenham clash

Burnley will once again be without injured trio Ashley Barnes, Matt Lowton and Johann Berg Gudmundsson for the Premier League visit of Tottenham at teatime on Saturday.

Barnes is back in training with the rest of the first team following a hernia operation that has sidelined him since New Year’s Day, but the striker is not yet ready to return this weekend.

Full-back Lowton remains out with a knee problem while winger Gudmundsson continues to be frustrated by a calf niggle.

Jose Mourinho expects Hugo Lloris to be back in the Tottenham goal.

The France captain has missed the last two games with a groin injury but returned to training on Friday.

Moussa Sissoko (knee), Harry Kane (hamstring) and Son Heung-min (arm) are still out.

Burnley provisional squad: Pope, Mee, Taylor, Tarkowski, Bardsley, Cork, Westwood, McNeil, Hendrick, Wood, Vydra, Rodriguez, Brownhill, Brady, Lennon, Pieters, Hart, Long.

Tottenham provisional squad: Lloris, Gazzaniga, Vorm, Aurier, Tanganga, Dier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Sanchez, Davies, Winks, Skipp, Fernandes, Lo Celso, Alli, Lamela, Bergwijn, Parrott, Moura.
