Tottenham Hotspur vs Brentford
Brentford sit just two places and four points below Spurs heading into this fixture with European football still up for grabs. The Bees' remarkable season has shown no signs of slowing down with three wins in their last four games. Thomas Frank's side will have to battle on without the help of Ivan Toney, however, who begins his first game out with an eight-month ban following a breach of betting rules.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Brentford
A disappointing season for Spurs continues to edge towards a wholly drab finish. Their quest for a top-four finish is over and they now have a battle on their hands to keep hold of seventh place and a spot in the Europa Conference League with Aston Villa breathing down their neck having beaten them 2-1 last weekend. Ryan Mason's side have just one win in their last six games and will not face an easy task against Brentford today.
