Here is the Tottenham Hotspur team that we believe Ryan Mason will field against Brentford in Saturday’s Premier League lunchtime kickoff.
Tottenham Hotspur will try to end a difficult season on a high note when they host Brentford in the early Premier League kick-off on Saturday.
Ryan Mason will push his Tottenham Hotspur team to win their final two games of the season and hope for the best as they aim for a European spot.Tottenham had been in the top four for much of the season before falling out in recent months due to a string of poor defeats, and they are now in risk of missing out on Europe entirely.
Due to their one-point advantage and extra game in hand, Brighton remain in the driving seat for a Europa League berth, with Tottenham and Aston Villa hoping the Seagulls fail in the final few games so they can take advantage. Spurs face a difficult test against Thomas Frank’s Brentford, who come to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with three wins in four games.
Spurs must finish their season at home with something for the supporters to enjoy, and Mason must make a few changes to enliven them.
Richarlison has struggled this season and has not been a threat in front of goal. If Mason sticks with his 4-4-2 formation, which converts to a 3-4-3 in possession, Son Heung-min might replace the Brazilian up top with Harry Kane.He may then bring in Ivan Perisic on the left side of midfield, and the Croatian can take possession of the front three with the South Korean on the right.
Mason could make a similar decision in midfield on the right, with Dejan Kulusevski replacing Pedro Porro, and if he is fit enough, Yves Bissouma could come into the midfield after a positive half-hour or so at Villa, with Mason having to decide whether to drop Oliver Skipp or Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg. In such case, the Dane’s expertise would almost certainly be enough to keep him on the team.
