Gtech Community Stadium - Brentford, Middlesex
Tottenham remain unbeaten against Brentford under Ange Postecoglou (P4 W3 D1) – one of only two opponents they’ve faced as many as four times without losing (also W3 D1 v Manchester United).
Tottenham earned their first away win in a London derby in the Premier League since October 2023 (2-1 v Crystal Palace), while it was the first time they’ve kept a clean sheet in such games under Ange Postecoglou (conceded in all eight before today).
Brentford have lost four of their last five Premier League home games by at least a two-goal margin (v Nottingham Forest, Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham), as many as such defeats as they had in their previous 23 on home soil in the competition (4).
Brentford have won just one of their seven Premier League meetings with Tottenham (D3 L3), with all three at the Gtech Community Stadium ending in a draw.
Tottenham are looking to complete the league double over Brentford for the first time, following their 3-1 win against them at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in September.
The team scoring first has won none of the last five Premier League meetings between Brentford and Tottenham, with Spurs coming back to win twice, Brentford once, and two draws.
Brentford are the Premier League’s leading scorers on home soil this season (29) but are winless in their last four at the Gtech Community Stadium (D1 L3). The Bees have gone 13 without a clean sheet at home, last having a longer run in the league between November 2003 and April 2004 (14).
Brentford and Tottenham are two of three teams, along with Wolves, whose games have seen 80+ goals in the Premier League this season (83 for Spurs, 82 for Brentford). The Bees have faced the most shots (429) while only four teams have had more shots than Spurs (333).
