Brentford are on the agenda for Tottenham on Saturday afternoon as Ange Postecoglou's side return to Premier League action. Involved in the Carabao Cup in midweek, Spurs did secure a 2-1 win away at Championship side Coventry City but they were made to work extremely hard for their place in the fourth round of the competition.
Tottenham looked set to exit the cup at the first time of asking until Djed Spence and Brennan Johnson turned the tie in their favour with 88th and 92nd-minute goals respectively. Due to their woes at the CBS Arena with the team delivering an uninspiring display, Spurs not only need to beat Brentford but also produce a performance that gets fans off their seats.
Three points is a must for the north London club this weekend as they currently sit 13th in the Premier League table after four games. Thomas Frank's team are four places ahead of them after winning two of their first four fixtures.
The Bees have made life very difficult for Spurs in their last five league outings and this one promises to be no different at all. Tottenham were victorious when the sides last met at the end of January, with quickfire second-half goals from Destiny Udogie, Johnson and Richarlison securing a 3-2 win after initially trailing.
