Brentford vs Tottenham Hotspur: Match Prediction
We give a slight preference to the hosts in this London derby. We would not risk a straight-win bet, since Brentford are slightly higher in the table, while Tottenham Hotspur remain very dangerous away and have suffered only two defeats on the road so far this season. Tottenham Hotspur have dipped slightly in recent away matches and, before the win over Crystal Palace, had not won in three consecutive Premier League away games. Moreover, in those four away matches the club scored more than one goal only once.
Brentford, thanks to excellent home form, are close to the European places. The team have played 9 home matches this season and lost only once, to Manchester City (6 wins and 2 draws). The side scored at least two goals in 6 of their last 8 home Premier League matches.
