Head-to-Head
- Tottenham have won two of the last three home games between the teams, drawing the other.
- Brentford have been poor away with one win and two defeats from their last three, and in our Tottenham vs Brentford prediction, this trend is likely to be a key factor.
Tottenham
- Tottenham look likely to be more of a threat to Brentford on Saturday when Thomas Frank’s squad faces his former club for the first time since he left for north London in the summer.
- This is one of the reasons why our Tottenham vs Brentford betting tips highlight possible vulnerabilities at the back, as Tottenham have conceded nine times in seven home games so far this Premier League season, which suggests there are defensive weaknesses to be exploited in this clash of two clubs with very similar overall records.
- Tottenham have one win, two draws and four defeats from seven home Premier League matches and were beaten 2-1 at home by Fulham and 5-3 away by PSG in their previous two games.
Brentford
- The Bees find themselves in 10th spot with 19 points from 13 games.
- The Bees are still direct and look to play on the break, but with a bit more progressive passing and more detail in terms of coaching.
- Brentford have three wins and two defeats in their last five games and secured a 3-1 victory over Burnley in their most recent game.
Key Players
- Igor Thiago has been a talisman for the club with 11 goals in 13 games, including six in his last five, and the Bees have the perfect player to exploit any overconfidence on show from Tottenham on Saturday.
- Richarlison has been the one player to come close to matching Igor’s output, netting five times in 13 Premier League games for Tottenham, who will need to keep the Brazilian under wraps to have a chance of beating the Bees, according to the latest Tottenham vs Brentford betting tips.
Betting Insights
- They are favorites with the odds around 2.35, Brentford are available at 3.17, and the draw is 3.64.
- We will take the Bees to avoid defeat in this matchup, but the best opportunity is probably the Over 2.5 goals option at 1.85.
Prediction
Brentford to avoid defeat and Over 2.5 goals appear the best plays for this fixture.
