Premier League Quick Preview: Brentford Vs Tottenham
After narrowly avoiding relegation last season, Tottenham begin the new Premier League season away at Brentford in what promises to be a tricky opener.
Roberto De Zerbi's side are slight underdogs on betting apps in this contest against a Bees side that finished ninth last time out.
This quick digest match preview will hopefully provide you with enough data to help you create a winning bet builder - the first of many this season.
Brentford To Continue Scoring Streak
This will be the Bees' sixth season in the top flight and they have managed to score in each of the previous five, including last season's 3-1 defeat at Nottingham Forest.
However, the same cannot be said about Brentford in their recent meetings with their London neighbours, who have kept clean sheets in their last three clashes with the Bees.
Brentford have not scored in 359 minutes of action against Spurs since Bryan Mbeumo opened the scoring in a 3-1 loss at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in September 2024.
Will Spurs Play Differently?
When Roberto De Zerbi took over as Tottenham manager, he got his players to roll their sleeves up and fight to keep their place in the top flight.
In doing so, they picked up 3+ cards in their last seven matches and forced 4+ corners in their final 11 fixtures.
Brentford have allowed their opponents 4+ shots on target in their final five matches of the 2025/26 season, so Spurs will hope their opponents are as generous this weekend.
