Following Saturday's disappointing 2-1 defeat at Aston Villa, Tottenham now have two games of the 2022/23 season remaining to secure a European spot. Brentford are Spurs' first opponents on Saturday lunchtime before they then take on relegation-threatened Leeds United on the final day of the campaign.
Going on the defeat at Villa Park, with the team extremely poor in the first half as the hosts dominated proceedings, acting head coach Ryan Mason may want to shuffle his pack in his quest to get the team back to winning ways. Naming the same side in the Midlands that beat Crystal Palace a week earlier, the 31-year-old introduced Yves Bissouma, Dejan Kulusevski, Arnaut Danjuma and Ivan Perisic in the closing stages as they looked for a way back into the contest.
The last of those changes saw Perisic replace Ben Davies on 90 minutes, leaving him with the six minutes of stoppage time to try and force an equaliser after Harry Kane's late penalty. That is the only football that has come the Croat's way in the past two games as Mason has preferred Davies ahead of him.
