Following a draw and a defeat either side of their winter break, Tottenham Hotspur will be aiming to return to winning ways when they host Brentford in the Premier League on Wednesday.
Ange Postecoglou's men were beaten by Manchester City in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Friday evening, after being held to a 2-2 draw in their most recent Premier League match against Manchester United; the Bees beat Nottingham Forest last time out.
Like their visitors, Spurs' squad is still short of some key players, so Sports Mole rounds up the latest team news ahead of the clubs' midweek clash.
