Burnley vs Tottenham is live on Sky Sports Premier League from 7pm on Monday Night Football; kick-off at 8pm; Spurs will go fifth in table if they win at Turf Moor.
Jose Mourinho says free-scoring Tottenham are nowhere near his record-breaking Real Madrid team just yet.
Spurs have scored 31 goals in their last nine games in all competitions with Harry Kane and Heung-min Son leading their attack. Mourinho's La Liga-winning Real Madrid side scored 121 goals on their way to the title in 2011/12, accumulating 100 points and conceding 32 goals.
Despite Tottenham's impressive attack, Mourinho accepts his side are still trying to find the balance after seeing their defensive frailties highlighted when they let a 3-0 lead slip in the final 10 minutes against West Ham last week.
"In Real Madrid, I had amazing, amazing attacking players and we managed to build the team in a certain way," he said ahead of the trip to Burnley, live on Monday Night Football.
"I have to be honest and say we have lots of good attacking players here but we need to give stability to the team because the team needs stability in the back to feel solid, confident - to (be able to) have a go. So we need to find that balance.
"Let's say that it is a team thing, it's not just about individuals. We need to be able to play with all these attacking players and have the team with everybody ready to be organised defensively and not to give space to the opponent.
"And behind, we need to improve in some details - that's obvious.
