What is the latest team news? Thomas Frank has reported no fresh injury concerns coming out of Wednesday night's Super Cup game. Advertisement However, left-back Destiny Udogie isn't yet ready to return from injury so he misses out along with longer-term absentees James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski and Radu Dragusin. The German has also confirmed that Yves Bissouma will be back in the squad after missing the midweek game for disciplinary reasons. Burnley expect to have near enough a full squad to pick from, although Zeki Amdouni (ACL) and Manuel Benson (Achilles) remain out. Scott Parker's men will be led out by Josh Cullen, with the Republic of Ireland midfielder captaining the club this season. Advertisement He is one of three Irishmen captaining Premier League clubs this season, the others being Seamus Coleman at Everton and Nathan Collins at Brentford. What are the odds? Tottenham are overwhelming favourites to claim the opening day three points and are priced at 8/15 to do so. Burnley, meanwhile, are out to 15/2 to pull off the upset, while the draw is at 15/4. What has been said in the build-up? Spurs came out swinging in defence of Mathys Tel after he suffered racist online abuse after the Super Cup. Tel was one of two players to miss penalties in the shoot-out, with the other being Micky van de Ven. Advertisement The club revealed he had been on the receiving end of online abuse and released a statement in his defence. It read: "We are disgusted at the racial abuse that Mathys Tel has received on social media following last night's UEFA Super Cup defeat. "Mathys showed bravery and courage to step forward and take a penalty, yet those who abuse him are nothing but cowards - hiding behind anonymous usernames and profiles to spout their abhorrent views. "We will work with the authorities and social media platforms to take the strongest possible action against any individual we are able to identify. "We stand with you, Mathys." Advertisement

What time and TV channel is Derry v Drogheda on in the FAI Cup tonight
Tiernan Lynch says his players can use November's Sports Direct FAI Cup final loss to Drogheda when the sides meet in the third round and with a place in the quarter-finals at stake. Lynch wasn't in charge for the Aviva Stadium decider, which was Ruaidhri Higgins' last game in charge, but most of his playing squad experienced the pain of a 2-0 defeat to the Boynesiders. "Everybody knows and are well aware of losing the final last year," said Lynch. "I'm sure there were a lot of hugely disappointed heads, no more than the players and the staff because of the effort and the commitment and the work that they put in to get there. You can use that as motivation to put that right.' But Derry have only taken two points from their last four League games as their title hopes hit a probable fatal roadblock and the Candystripes are facing an in-form Drogheda side that has only lost one League game in six, although that did come against Derry in June. Where is the game taking place? The game takes place at the Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium in Derry. What time is kick-off? The game kicks off on Saturday at 8pm. Where can I watch it? The match will be shown live on RTÉ2. Coverage starts at 7.30pm. Betting odds Derry City are 1/2 to win, Drogheda are 11/2 to win, the draw is 13/5 Difficult Elicha Ahui, Steve Zishim Bawa and Scott Brady are ruled out through injury for the Boynesiders, but Doherty has Paul Doyle available again, while Derry have a full squad available bar long-term absentee Cameron Dummigan. "We're under no illusions about how difficult the game is going to be," said Lynch. "Drogheda is a really difficult team to break down, I don't think they've conceded a goal now for four or five games. ''They're just one of those teams who are very good at what they do, and great credit to them for it. We know we have to be at our very best."
