When sport ground to a halt as the coronavirus took hold, Spurs were eighth in the Premier League, seven points off Chelsea in fourth place. It is early days but Mourinho is still to convince Spurs fans, so many of whom worshipped Pochettino. There have been few high points in the new home - and there will not be for some time.

Brest have won just one of their last six games but this really doesn't tell the full story as there have been some incredibly gutsy performances from les Ty'Zefs in here. They pushed each member of the top three right to the edge (PSG: 1-2, Marseille: 1-2, Lille: 0-1) and managed to pull off an incredible 5-0 thrashing of Strasbourg along the way so they haven't been playing that badly despite the lack of wins, their opponents have just been incredibly difficult but they could be on for the three points here as Nice come to town.
