Tottenham Hotspur vs Brentford Preview
- Tournament: Premier League
- Date: Saturday, Sep 21
- Kick-off Time: 03:00 pm GMT
- Venue: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, England
It is time for gameweek 5 in the English Premier League 2024-25, and a struggling giant Tottenham Hotspur are getting ready to host Brentford FC. If this was the start of the competition, many would have predicted an easy win for Tottenham. But, things look much more intense now with both teams looking evenly poised.
There would hardly be any worse time for Tottenham Hotspur than they are going through now. The big side has lost their last two games, and drawn one previously, tallying only one win so far. They are trembling at spot 13 now.
Brentford are being more fierce than anybody would have thought of them to be. The side has won two and lost two so far, and have already faced two of the “big six” teams. The tough opponents they lost two were Liverpool and Manchester City, but they did give a worthy challenge in the process.

Key Players to Watch in Tottenham Hotspur vs Brentford
Heung-min Son (Tottenham Hotspur)
The 32-year-old Spurs skipper is one of the only bright performers in the squad presently. He creates numerous chances to operate from the left. He is also a good goal-scorer when given the role at the centre, something we saw in the game against Everton, where he struck a brace. Spurs fans will have their hopes bestowed on him in this game.
Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford)
Bryan Mbeumo has been the best performer for not just Brentford but in the entire league. Whenever he has scored a goal, his side has won the game. He has three pals in four games, one against Southampton and two against Crystal Palace. Chance against the shaky defense of Tottenham might further increase his tally.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Brentford Prediction
This game could go either way. Hosts Tottenham Hotspur have a stronger, more skillful, and technically superior side. Which is easily one of the most competitive in not just England, but the entire Europe. But the side is having poor form, and currently trembling at the bottom half of the table.
Brentford have shown excellent courage in the past few games, and have been one of the best sides in the league, despite tough challenges. They may not have a big-money squad, but the form is in their favour. So, after analysis, it can be predicted that Brentford might edge past Tottenham Hotspur in this game.
