Brentford vs Tottenham Hotspur Preview

Brentford head into this New Year’s Day encounter showing signs of recovery, with their most recent outing producing a commanding 4-1 home victory over AFC Bournemouth on December 27th. Prior to that, they secured an impressive 2-0 away win at Wolverhampton Wanderers on December 20th. Earlier in this sequence, they suffered a 2-0 away defeat to Manchester City, drew 1-1 at home with Leeds United, and lost 2-0 away to Tottenham Hotspur on December 6th. Their last five matches have yielded two wins, one draw and two losses, demonstrating inconsistency that has characterised their recent campaign.

Tottenham Hotspur arrive at the Gtech Community Stadium with their own mixed form, having most recently claimed a narrow 1-0 away win at Crystal Palace on December 28th. Before that, they endured consecutive defeats, losing 2-1 at home to Liverpool on December 20th and suffering a humbling 3-0 away loss at Nottingham Forest on December 14th. Earlier results include a 3-0 home victory over Slavia Prague in the Champions League on December 9th and their 2-0 home win over Brentford on December 6th. Spurs have collected three wins and two losses from their last five fixtures, showing vulnerability despite possessing quality throughout their squad.

The head-to-head record strongly favours Tottenham, who have won four of the last five meetings with one draw. Most recently, Tottenham claimed a 2-0 home victory on December 6th, 2025, while they also secured a 2-0 away win at Brentford in February 2025. The only point Brentford have salvaged in recent encounters came in a 2-2 home draw in August 2023.

Both managers are expected to select attacking lineups for this fixture. Brentford will look to exploit their home advantage and replicate the intensity that brought them success against Bournemouth, while Tottenham will aim to impose their technical quality and continue their dominance in this fixture. The tactical battle promises intrigue, with Brentford’s direct approach contrasting with Tottenham’s possession-based style.
