Postecoglou is preparing his side for Wednesday night's visit of Brentford in a crucial clash in the race for the top four.

Spurs are currently fifth, three-points adrift of Aston Villa, with all to play for in the coming months.

Postecoglou's men are showing signs of finding their feet again after a wretched November that saw them lose top spot after collecting just one point from a possible 15.

Tottenham drew 2-2 at Manchester United in the last Premier League fixture and a return to winning ways against Brentford would provide the perfect opportunity to kickstart their quest for a return to European football.
