The race for the top four is on as Tottenham are only three points off the pace of Aston Villa after their loss to Newcastle United. With James Maddison back in the fold, Heung-min Son and Pape Sarr will also be returning soon after South Korea and Senegal's elimination from the AFC Asian Cup and Africa Cup of Nations. Already out of the FA Cup, the time is now to push for top four but Brentford will provide a stern test.
