Hosts Out of Champions League Race

In-form Brentford would be eager to pull off the upset on Saturday when it travels to play struggling Tottenham in the Premier League. Our sportsbook offers the best markets and live betting odds in the English top-flight league.

Tottenham: Two Games to Salvage Season

Tottenham endured a miserable first half at Villa Park as it failed to have a shot, had only one touch in the opposition box, and registered an xG of zero. Ryan Mason’s troops did, however, come close to equalizing in the second half before Luiz’s set-piece strike as Emiliano Martinez denied Harry Kane.

Tottenham has had a habit of conceding early goals in recent games, which continued at Villa Park, so if you’re betting online, you shouldn’t back it on Saturday. Across its last five games in the Premier League, Spurs have conceded seven goals in the opening 10 minutes.

Tottenham and Aston Villa are on 57 points from 36 games, and the best they can hope for is Europa League football, unless Brighton has a poor run-in and drop out of the top six. Spurs will barely have time to lick their wounds from losing to Aston Villa when they host Brentford.

Their deluded ambitions of being top-four contenders were ruthlessly exposed once again last weekend. Spurs can still qualify for next season’s European competitions, but the Conference League is not exactly what they wished at the start of the season.

One of Antonio Conte’s final parting shots was to question his players’ professionalism, describing them as selfish for throwing away a two-goal lead against bottom club Southampton. Perhaps more worrying is that the Spurs’ ship now has too many leaks to stop it from sinking completely. The trio of Hugo Lloris, Ryan Sessegnon, and Rodrigo Bentancur are confined to the treatment room with season-ending injuries.

Brentford: Fighting for Conference League Spot

A three-game unbeaten run for Brentford was brought to a swift end upon its visit to Merseyside last weekend, where a 13th-minute Mohamed Salah goal proved decisive to hand Liverpool its sixth Premier League win on the bounce.

The visitors bounced back in style, beating West Ham 2-0 last weekend in front of its fans. First-half goals from Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa secured a comfortable 2-0 home Premier League victory for Brentford over West Ham United on Sunday to ensure their best top-flight finish since 1938, but we can’t trust the team enough to include it in our Premier League picks and parlays.

They even have the chance to play in Europe, sitting four points behind seventh-spot Tottenham. Only Arsenal and Newcastle United have beaten Frank’s men this season on their soil, where Brentford have both scored and conceded in six of their previous seven Premier League affairs, but its away form was disappointing. Keane Lewis-Potter, Christian Norgaard, Thomas Strakosha, and outgoing captain Pontus Jansson are all confined to the treatment room.

Tottenham vs Brentford Head-to-Head

Brentford never managed to beat Tottenham, but it managed to keep Spurs to two consecutive draw games, including a 2-2 in the reverse fixture on home soil. Tottenham is one of the best home teams in the league winning 12 of their 18 home fixtures and scoring 36 goals.

Brentford is not regarded as a great away side, winning just four in 18 road games. It lost three of its previous four away games, failing to find the back of the net on each occasion. Tottenham has failed to keep a clean sheet in 10 of their previous 11 Premier League fixtures. Harry Kane scored 27 EPL goals so far, netting in four of his last five appearances.
