Brentford – Tottenham Preview
Tottenham currently occupy the coveted fourth position, and they are determined to keep it to secure entry into the next edition of the Champions League.
However, teams like Arsenal, Manchester United, West Ham etc are determined to challenge for this position, and Spurs will have to stay on top if they are to avoid any last-minute setbacks.
It should also be mentioned that they have an opportunity just around the corner, as the Gunners take on the Red Devils later this week, and at least one of the two will drop points.
Meanwhile, Brentford are on a roll at the moment, and after much struggle they appear to have raised their level to what is expected of a Premier League side.
This weekend is likely to be an intense encounter, with many goals expected.
However, the Spurs have the advantage this Saturday. They have a much better squad and coach. And more importantly, his goal is too important, while Brentford have no pressing problems to deal with. It is comfortably located in the middle of the table, far from the fight for relegation and the European race.

Predictions and Analysis Brentford – Tottenham
Brentford recorded a 1-2 away win on the final matchday, against Watford. They are on a three-match winning streak, having won five of their last six meetings. Bear in mind that they had also scored two or more goals in five of their previous six clashes.
On the other hand, Tottenham lost 0-1 at home last week against Brighton. However, before that they had been on a four-game winning streak, scoring a total of 11 goals in those four games.
Taking these observations into account, it is to be expected that the goals will come from either end of the pitch.
However, Spurs have a much better record in recent years and at the same time Brentford are an inexperienced team who were promoted to the top flight at the end of last season.
Therefore, we anticipate a Tottenham victory.
