Brentford
This team comes into this match with a 2-1 over Man City, where it was Ivan Toney who helped Brentford secure the win. They are currently at the 11th of the Premier League league table with 19 points across their names. However, from their last five league games, this squad only won once. They are still lucky that they won their game before the break as it could give them a good momentum as they return. The fact that they won against Man City is more than enough for them to gain confidence for this game. Additionally, they are also lucky that their manager extended his stay in this team. His intelligence is doing the miracles for Brentford.
Finally, after months of missing in the contest, Pontus Jansson will finally suit up for Brentford, after having a hamstring problem. However, Aaron Hickey, Thomas Strakosha, and Kristoffer Ajer are still on the sidelines, as they recover from their injuries.
Totthenham Hotspur
The Spurs has a better record in the league table compared to Brentford, as they are currently the 4th in the league table. Although they are in the 4th place of the league table, they are just three points away against the second-placers, Man City. With that being said, if they earned a victory in this match, they could tie Man City in the second spot. However, this season, they have failed to reach the expectations of them. Despite of that, they are still lucky that their squad is still standing strong as one of the top teams in the Premier League. Now, as they return in the contest, they are hopeful to continue on winning to improve their record.
Fraser Forster will return as a starter for the Spurs, and Ivan Perisic finally returns to training, and could start in this match as well. However, Cristian Romero will not be available in this match. Richarlison, and Bentancur, are both out of the contest, while Ryan Sessegnon is a doubt in this match.
