follow all the action here as Tottenham seeks to secure a spot in the Carabao Cup final by defeating Brentford at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Jose Mourinho’s men return to their victories with a 3-0 win over Leeds on Saturday afternoon and will look to get two straight wins if they secure a spot in the Carabao Cup final
However, it certainly won’t be easy with the championship team knocking out four Premier League teams on their way to the bottom four so far
Thomas Frank’s team is also very well positioned in the league at the moment The Bees are currently in fourth place and six points ahead of leaders Norwich City with one game in hand
Mourinho has a very good record in this competition, having previously won it in his first full season during his two seasons as Chelsea boss and also when he was in charge of Manchester United
Given Spurs’ need for cutlery after their last title win in 2008, the head coach will aim to secure a spot at Wembley to lead the club to important honors
Our Tottenham correspondents Alasdair Gold and Rob Guest report on the game with all the actions from the stadium and the reactions of fans and media
Brentford pushes for an equalizer, but Ivan Toney can’t get his touch just outside the box and Eric Dier is there to steal his bag
Moussa Sissoko scores! He remains unmarked and sends Reguilon’s cross home with a nice header
Mourinho said this was the biggest game since arriving at Spurs and his team selection shows that by and large he means it
Sergio Reguilon in particular will simply try to keep his head bowed and impress after his festive folly
Davinson Sanchez comes in to add some pace in the center of defense, with Toby Alderweireld taking a break from at least the start
It would also be close between Harry Winks and Moussa Sissoko who would win Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg as a partner, and it is the French who get the job
His compatriot Tanguy Ndombele is starting again and Mourinho tells FootballLondon on Saturday that Steven Bergwijn felt his groin late in the win against Leeds, so that he will probably fall on the bench for Lucas Moura as a precautionary measure
Since Mourinho can use five substitutes, many players on the bench can see action depending on how the game develops Dele Alli in particular thinks that Ndombele gets tired as the game progresses
It’s also good to see Harvey White back on the bench after making his Europa League debut
Mourinho and the staff were happy with his development and taking part in a semi-final is another big step in his development
Anyone who doesn’t start in this game will likely face non-league Marines on Sunday, and White will want to put his name in the hat for it
Brentford will bring the attacking game they shine in the championship and Mourinho will hope the Leeds game was the perfect preparation to deal with it
Brentford has made quite an impression with their attacking football over the past couple of seasons
They are about to move up to the top league in August and hope to get even better in May
