Tottenham Hotspur will look to get their Premier League top four bid back on track when they visit Brentford FC this evening, as Christian Eriksen comes up against his former side for the first time.
Spurs were shocked at home to Brighton last time out as Leandro Trossard’s last-gasp goal saw Antonio Conte’s side winning run come to an end with a 1-0 defeat.
Rivals Arsenal were unable to capitalise as they then lost to Southampton, but the Gunners beat Chelsea on Wednesday as the top-four race took a further turn.
Tottenham defeated Brentford 2-0 in December but Thomas Frank’s side are in form and have won their last five matches in which Eriksen has started to safely pull away from the relegation zone.
Here’s everything you need to know before the match tonight.

Prediction
Brentford have made life difficult for most of the top teams this season - even if they only have the opening win against Arsenal and draw against Liverpool to show for it - and their recent form is impressive. Thomas Frank’s side are approaching ‘on the beach’ territory, however, and a Tottenham side in need of a response and with much more to play for should have the advantage. Brentford 1-3 Tottenham
