Team news
Burnley manager Sean Dyche has confirmed that he will again rotate his squad for Saturday's FA Cup fourth-round tie against Norwich.
Johann Berg Gudmundsson has stepped up his recovery from a hamstring injury but could still miss out while Ashley Barnes and Ben Gibson will not feature.
Dyche said: "I've spoken to the players about this weekend and we will put out a team that we think can win the game. It's about the mentality and not letting that wander, as we've seen so many times with different results."
Adam Idah is set for another start for Norwich following his hat-trick in the 4-2 victory over Preston in the third round.
Emi Buendia and Todd Cantwell have both been ruled out while Kenny McLean and Ibrahim Amadou are both doubts but Ralf Fährmann and Mario Vrancic are back in contention.
Canaries boss Daniel Farke said: "It's a little break from the league but we want to be successful. It's a quick turnaround from Spurs so it's tricky - I expect more than two changes."
