Brentford vs Tottenham Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 13th August 2023

Are Brentford looking to consolidate their top half finish in the Premier League from last season, or are they aiming for higher ground this time around? They open a new season taking on Tottenham at Gtech Community Stadium.

Brentford bid welcome to Tottenham, who ended last season as number eight in the Premier League. The hosts can look back on a season which saw them end up as number nine.

Brentford are relatively average in the art of goal-scoring these days. They scored a steady 12 goals in their previous ten matches, for an average of 1.2 per game. They simultaneously allowed their opponents nine goals, or an average of 0.9 a game. Furthermore, they fought their way to three clean sheets in this run.

Tottenham scored 18 times in their previous ten matches, an average of 1.8 per game. They also conceded 23 goals for an average of 2.3 a game, pulling off one clean sheet in these.

The last time these two sides facing off here came up against each other, Brentford came away with a 1-3 win. Rest assured they have a similar outcome in mind at Gtech Community Stadium.

Brentford vs Tottenham Prediction

Brentford Form

In their last three outings, Brentford won 2-0 against West Ham, beat Tottenham by 1-3 and hammered Manchester City 1-0. Brentford won three of their previous six matches at Gtech Community Stadium in the Premier League. They drew two and suffered one defeats, scoring eight goals to five against.

Brentford go into the season with the clear aim of a top half finish, perhaps even contesting for a place in an international competition.

Tottenham Form

Tottenham suffered a couple of disappointments in their last three matches as they were run over by Aston Villa in a 2-1 defeat. Brentford also proved too hard to handle as they won 1-3, before Tottenham were able to strike back in a 1-4 win against Leeds. Tottenham managed to win just once in their past six away games in the Premier League. On top of winning once they also drew two as well as losing three, while scoring 17 time and letting in 13.

Tottenham go into a new season as candidates for the podium, but will count themselves lucky to achieve more than a third place.

We trust neither defence to be able to keep their opponent at bay, when Brentford welcome Tottenham on Sunday. Goals should be flowing at both ends of the pitch.
