Bissouma, Odobert, Werner - Tottenham injury news and return dates for Brentford

Spurs came from behind to beat Coventry City in their Carabao Cup fourth round tie, but Ange Postecoglou's side did not come through the midweek match unscathed

Tottenham Hotspur host another London derby this weekend against Brentford as they seek their second win of the Premier League season.

Back-to-back defeats on either side of the international break to Newcastle United and then Arsenal already leave Spurs off-the-pace of their rivals a month into the new campaign. Coming from behind to beat Championship club Coventry City prevented piling further pressure on them after losing the North London Derby.

But that came at a cost, with Ange Postecoglou forced into two changes through injury. football.london has the latest from those in the Tottenham treatment room ahead of Brentford.
