Danny Ings had the best chance of the first half for the home team, but after being put through on goal in the fifth minute, he could only shoot down the throat of Michel Vorm.
Spurs were given an injury worry when Kyle Walker limped off 40 seconds after the restart and was replaced by Ben Davies.
Christian Eriksen tried to inject some life into the game, but was unable to lock the Burnley defence.
Spurs are now up into sixth, but they are seven points behind fourth-placed Manchester City.
