According to a statement from Tottenham Hotspur Foootball Club, their corporate parents ENIC Group, owned by 85-year-old British businessman Joe Lewis, will provide a massive financial investment into the sports franchise.

Yesterday saw an announcement that ENIC will be injecting £150 million ($187.64m) into the club to help manager Antonio Conte and his team challenge for trophies next season. The tremendous work that Conte did, to salvage a lost season and secure a return to the UEFA Champions League for next term, are going to be justly rewarded.

Antonio Conte takes his Spurs side to Carrow Road, knowing a victory will see them in the Champions League next year. Any kind of slip-up is likely to be pounced upon by bitter rivals Arsenal, so three points are a must. 

Last time out, Spurs needed just the solitary goal to defeat Burnley. That Harry Kane strike, combined with the 3-0 victory in the North London derby, puts Tottenham in the driving seat for a top four finish. The Lilywhites dominated Norwich’s potential relegation colleagues. It was a much more convincing victory than the 1-0 score line suggests.

After a stuttering run-in, Spurs have taken pole position in the top four race. They achieved this on the back of a sensational 3-0 victory over direct rivals Arsenal. They then followed it up with a 1-0 victory over relegation candidate Burnley. The math for Tottenham is simple coming into the last day of the 2021/22 season: win and they will play Champions League football next year. They couldn’t have requested a more favorable opponent as Antonio Conte’s men travel to Carrow Road to face EPL whipping boys Norwich.

Tottenham has lost just one of their last 10 league matches at Carrow Road. That defeat happened in the early days of Mauricio Pochettino’s reign in 2014. In the reverse fixture this season, Tottenham easily disposed of the Canaries in front of their home fans 3-0.

Tottenham host Burnley in their last home match of the season this weekend. Antonio Conte’s men will look to keep the pressure on their North London rivals, Arsenal, in fourth place. Spurs currently sit in fifth place, just one point behind the Gunners, and will look to pounce on any slip up their bitter enemies might make. A victory here will temporarily put them in the highly coveted Champions League qualification places.

Spurs have every reason to feel confident coming into this fixture. In their last nine home matches against Burnley, The Lily Whites are undefeated, winning eight and drawing just one.

It’s a quick turnaround for Antonio Conte’s men, as they have just two and a half days to prepare for the visit of Burnley. The Clarets head into this match, looking to complete their first league double over Tottenham in almost fifty years.

They won their first contest with Spurs at Turf Moor earlier this season with a 71st-minute header from defender Ben Mee. That victory would prove to be the last for the club under the reign of Sean Dyche. Should Mike Jackson repeat the same trick as his predecessor, Burnley will become just the fourth side to complete a top division league double over an Antonio Conte-managed side. They would join the ranks of Italy’s Juventus and Sampdoria, along with Manchester City.
