Hugo Lloris keeps his place in goal as expected but Cristian Romero hasn’t made it back in time for today’s game.
That means Davinson Sanchez keeps his place in defence, joining Eric Dier and Ben Davies.
Emerson Royal and Ryan Sessegnon are the wing backs with Rodrigo Bentancur and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in midfield.
The big news surrounds Dejan Kulusevski as the Swede is only available from the bench due to illness.
Lucas Moura comes in down the right flank with Son Heung-min down the left and Harry Kane up top.
Kulusevski is only on the bench, joining Pierluigi Gollini, Brandon Austin, Joe Rodon, Harvey White, Harry Winks, Matthew Craig, Steven Bergwijn and Dane Scarlett.
Burnley go with Nick Pope in goal behind what appears to be a back five of Connor Roberts, Matthew Lowton, Nathan Collins, Kevin Long and Charlie Taylor.
It looks like Jack Cork and Josh Brownhill will play in midfield with Dwight McNeil and Maxwell Cornet supporting Ashely Barnes up top.
That means Wout Weghorst only makes the bench, joining Wayne Hennessey, Phil Bardsley, Bobby Thomas, Owen Dodgson, Aaron Lennon, Anthony Gomez Mancini, Dara Costelloe and Joe McGlynn.
