Match preview
Brentford will aim to use their home advantage and physical intensity to unsettle Tottenham. Keith Andrews’ side impressed during the previous campaign and should again pose a substantial threat from pressing situations, crosses and set pieces.
Tottenham begin the season under Roberto De Zerbi, whose possession-based approach will face an immediate examination at the compact Gtech Community Stadium. Spurs may control more of the ball, but they must avoid turnovers in areas where Brentford can attack quickly.
Tottenham have recently held the upper hand in this fixture, although the clubs’ last meeting at the Gtech ended in a 0-0 draw on January 1, 2026.
Prediction: Brentford 1-1 Tottenham Hotspur
