Brentford have won just one of their last 19 meetings with Spurs, dating back to 1948, this a 3-1 win at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in May 2023. Tottenham are seeking a fourth successive victory over the Bees, something they last achieved in 1998.
Tottenham vs Brentford preview
Can Tottenham Hotspur finally end their long wait for a Premier League home win? Since smashing Burnley on the opening day, Spurs have failed to win any of their six home league fixtures, yielding just two points, most-recently beaten 2-1 by Fulham last Saturday night, calamitously 2-0 down inside six minutes. In fact, since 3 November last year, Tottenham have won just three times in 21 attempts in front of their own supporters, beating Burnley, Southampton and Manchester United.
More broadly, ahead of this meeting with his former club, things are not going particularly well for Thomas Frank right now. On Tuesday night, his team did at least twice fight back from behind to earn a 2-2 draw with Newcastle on Tyneside. Centre-back Cristian Romero with both equalisers, the second, coming deep into injury time, one of the slowest bicycle kicks you're ever likely to see. This did at least end a sequence of three straight defeats, but Tottenham are now winless in five, thereby kicking off 11th in the Premier League table. So, will their supporters finally have something to cheer?
Meantime, Brentford almost never win away, so something has got to give. Last season under Frank, the Bees failed to win any of their first nine Premier League away games while, this time round, they've lost six out of seven on the road, the sole exception a comfortable 2-0 win at West Ham.
On Wednesday night, Keith Andrews' side were swatted aside 2-0 by league-leaders Arsenal, rarely threatening, albeit had Kevin Schade's towering header not been spectacularly saved, it may have been a different story. Brentford are currently 13th, level on points with Tottenham, and have a winnable sequence of fixtures coming up, facing Leeds, Wolves and then Bournemouth next. Here, will the Bees become the latest team to leave the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium celebrating?

Tottenham team news
Thomas Frank remains without Radu Drăgușin, Ben Davies, Kōta Takai, Yves Bissouma, James Maddison, Dejan Kuluševski and Dominic Solanke, but does still have plenty of options.
Rodrigo Bentancur partnered Pape Matar Sarr at the base of midfield on Tuesday, so it'll be interesting to see if João Palhinha returns.
With Xavi Simons yet to impress, Lucas Bergvall could keep his place as the number ten, while Brennan Johnson and Randal Kolo Muani got the nod in attack against Newcastle, but will any of Mathys Tel, Richarlison or Wilson Odobert return this time?
Micky van de Ven will almost certainly start, having been rested on Tyneside.
Tottenham Hotspur predicted lineup vs Brentford: (4-3-3): Vicario; Porro, van de Ven, Romero, Udogie; Gray, Bentancur, Kudus, Bergvall, Richarlison; Kolo Muani.

Mohammed Kudus scored once in four meetings with Brentford during his time at West Ham, so can the Ghanian now net in a second successive match at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium?
Brentford team news
Keith Andrews rested four of his key players at Arsenal, potentially prioritising this clash instead.
Nathan Collins, Jordan Henderson, Mikkel Damsgaard and Igor Thiago all came off the bench on Wednesday, thereby expected to start this time, with Andrews sticking with the back five.
Collins and Kevin Schade would both sit out next Sunday's clash with Leeds if cautioned.
Brentford predicted lineup vs Tottenham Hotspur: (5-3-2): Kelleher; Kayode, Collins, van den Berg, Ajer, Lewis-Potter; Henderson, Yarmolyuk, Damsgaard; Schade, Thiago.

Igor Thiago is the highest-scoring Brazilian in European football right now, taking his tally to 12 for the season with a brace against Burnley last weekend, so can he fire the Bees to victory?
