Thomas Frank has picked his Tottenham Hotspur lineup to welcome his former club Brentford to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this afternoon in the Premier League – match preview here.

Spurs visited St James’ Park in midweek Premier League action and two goals from the unlikely source of Cristian Romero ensured they came back from Newcastle United with a 2-2 draw.

Frank could have done with all three points, but the draw stopped a run of three consecutive defeats which has put his position under pressure.

The Spurs boss will need no reminding that losing against his former side Brentford today would crank the pressure up even further.

Brentford arrive on the back of a 2-0 loss at Arsenal, but have swapped between wins and losses for their last six games.

The Bees last won away at Tottenham in 2023, when they came out on top 3-1.

Tottenham take to the pitch amid the club having confirmed that legend Heung-Min Son will be returning to say goodbye to the fans in the new year, when Spurs face Slavia Prague in the Champions League.

Guglielmo Vicario is in goal for Tottenham this afternoon, while at the back Frank goes with a four of Pedro Porro, Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven and Djed Spence.

The midfield battle could be crucial on the day and Spurs deploy Rodrigo Bentancur, Archie Gray and Xavi Simons, while Mohammed Kudus, Richarlison and Randal Kolo Muani will provide the goal threats.

If Frank needs to influence the game through his changes then he has options off the bench and they include Mathys Tel and Brennan Johnson.
