Brentford's orange training top and United's fluorescent shorts and socks would make a very tasty combo.

Dr David: We all have a short memory. All this talk about Spurs challenging top 4 but it’s been so long since they played we forgot they can’t score and have been pretty poor this season.
Nothing puts the dry January resolve to the test like watching Spurs on a midweek night...

Off the line again!
Leicester are giving this everything, in attack and defence.
Marc Albrighton is the hero here, busting a gut to get back and stop the ball crossing the line after Pierre Emile Hojbjerg finds the target with his shot.
Brentford 0-0 Man Utd
United do make their first foray forward in the fourth minute and there are loud jeers from the home fans as Cristiano Ronaldo gets on the ball for the first time.
Not the brightest idea to boo a player of that calibre.
Leicester 1-0 Tottenham
It is Leicester dictating things now.
Caglar Soyuncu rises to meet a corner but gets under it and sends his header looping over.
Brentford 0-0 Man Utd
Brentford have made a bright start, biting into tackles and asking questions of the opposition at the back.
It's bringing the crowd to their feet.
Leicester 1-0 Tottenham
James Maddison lets fly from range. Pushed wide.
Leicester 1-0 Tottenham
Spurs almost make an absolute mess of things at the back!
They allow Ademola Lookman to nip in and charge forward after dwelling on the ball. Lookman's pass to release Patson Daka is cut out, though. A proper let off.
Brentford 0-0 Man Utd
Brentford's Danish Rory Delap, Mads Bech Sorensen, launches the first long throw into the box in the opening minute which United don't fully clear before Mathias Jensen scuffs wide from the edge of the area.
He had time and knows he should do better.
Leicester 1-0 Tottenham
Confidence. That's what a goal gives you.
Leicester are patient around the edge of the Spurs box before a pass designed to get Ademola Lookman in just misses it's mark and runs out of play.
Applause from Brendan. He likes what he sees.
Leicester 1-0 Tottenham
Patson Daka has been directly involved in 10 goals across his 10 starts for Leicester in all competitions (7 goals, 3 assists).
Only Jamie Vardy (11) has scored more goals in all competitions for Leicester this season than Daka (8).
Maybe don't write Vardy off just yet.
Brentford 0-0 Man Utd
Right, time for some serious business.
Under way at Brentford.
Leicester 1-0 Tottenham
There's bite in Leicester. Hamza Choudhury slams into a tackle near the touchline, prompting cheers from the home fans.
This is a contest now.

Former Crystal Palace striker on BBC Radio 5 Live
It’s a good goal. The finish is really good from a tight angle. Hugo Lloris tries to get a hand to it but it’s good finish from Patson Daka.
I know they don’t have Jamie Vardy but I do like Daka.

Vardy's days are numbered!

Classic 'the opposition have scored' tweet from Spurs. Great protocol.

Differing perspectives of a goal...

Great tackle from Ademola Lookman!
He dives in to stop Emerson Royal doing any damage from a position on the right side of the box. Had to time that perfection.
