The wait for Premier League football to return is almost over. Beating Leeds United 4-3 in a topsy-turvy match in early November, Tottenham return to the pitch on Boxing Day when they travel across the capital to face Thomas Frank's Brentford.
In preparation for the encounter in west London, Spurs have beaten Motherwell and Peterborough United Under-21s over the past week and will take on French side Nice next Wednesday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. A chance for those currently at Hotspur Way to give Antonio Conte something to think about, the boss will certainly have a few decisions to make between now and Boxing Day.
So what exactly does he need to decide on prior to the game at Brentford Community Stadium? football.london takes a look.
