Brentford will face Tottenham Hotspur at the Gtech Community Stadium, aiming for their third straight Premier League win.
Currently placed eighth in the standings, Brentford comes off a strong 4-1 victory against Bournemouth, boosting team morale as they prepare to host their former manager.
The team has shown impressive home performance this season, with only a few top clubs winning more matches at home since April. Brentford is optimistic about tackling a Spurs side that has often underperformed in January. Kevin Schade’s return to form also adds strength to their attack.
Brentford Team News
The manager noted that their top scorer, Igor Thiago, is a minor doubt for the match. He has netted 11 league goals but is dealing with an ongoing issue. Nonetheless, his courage in playing through the pain has been commendable during recent wins against Wolves and Bournemouth. The team will be cautious with his playing time during this busy festive season.
Defensively, Sepp van den Berg’s availability is uncertain after missing the Bournemouth match due to injury. A late fitness test will determine if he can play. The injury list includes Fábio Carvalho, Antoni Milambo, and Josh Dasilva, while AFCON commitments will see Frank Onyeka and Dango Ouattara unavailable. Andrews may stick with the same starting XI that secured victory last weekend.
