Preview & Prediction: Tottenham Hotspur FC vs Brentford FC

Tottenham Hotspur has been struggling lately, but their recent home form has been strong. They have scored in their past eight home games and are unbeaten in their last two. Brentford, on the other hand, has been performing well, with ten points from their last five games. They have only conceded two goals in their last five games and will provide a tough challenge for Tottenham. Despite this, Tottenham has a great record against Brentford, having won two out of their last four meetings. We predict this will be a close game, with both teams scoring, and Tottenham narrowly edging out Brentford with a 2-1 victory.

Tottenham Hotspur will try to keep their European dreams alive when they host Brentford in a Premier League match on Saturday lunchtime. While the hosts have won six of their past eight league games at home, the visitors have been defeated in three of their last four away games.

Tottenham’s recent slump in form has been exacerbated by defensive flaws, as they have only maintained one clean sheet in their previous 11 league games, conceding at least twice in six of them. Spurs surrendered twice in a 2-2 draw against Brentford in the opposite game on Boxing Day, but they may take some solace from their home record against the Bees, which they have won by a 2-0 scoreline in each of their past three encounters.

The Bees, who are undefeated in their last eight Premier League London derbies, still have a chance of obtaining European football for next season if they win on Saturday, as a win would move them to within one point of seventh-placed Tottenham going into their final game of the season, albeit at home against champions-elect Manchester City. Brentford’s away form has been mixed, as they have only won two of their past ten league games on the road, both of which have occurred in London, including a 2-0 victory against Chelsea at the end of April.
