Live Updates: Tottenham vs. Brentford in the Premier League as covered by The Guardian

There are big changes ahead for Tottenham in the upcoming summer season. Outgoing Brentford captain, Pontus Jansson, discussed the emotional reaction of Ivan Toney to his ban with BT Sport. Jansson emphasized the importance of supporting Toney as a person and a teammate during this difficult time. Yves Bissouma, who has been overlooked recently, will start for Tottenham alongside Arnaut Danjuma for the first time, while Dejan Kulusevski replaces the disappointing Richarlison. Brentford makes one change, with Mikkel Damsgaard being replaced by Frank Onyeka, and Mbeumo, Schade, and Wissa forming a strong attacking trio. Referee Jarred Gillett from Australia will officiate the match.

Tottenham currently sits in seventh place, while Brentford is in ninth. Both teams have had successful seasons, but without the presence of Harry Kane, Tottenham could have been below Brentford in the standings. This match could potentially be Kane's last home league game for the club, which adds an air of anticipation for fans and experts alike. The absence of Toney due to his betting breaches will undoubtedly be felt by Brentford, but it is also an opportunity for Thomas Frank, a name linked to Tottenham's managerial vacancy, to showcase his skills and perhaps attract attention from the club.
