Brentford vs Tottenham predictions, odds, betting tips & team news
Brentford host Tottenham in a Premier League showdown on Sunday, February 2nd, at 2pm (UK time). Heading into the weekend Brentford sit 11th in the table, while Spurs find themselves all the way down in 15th. Check out our match preview and best bets below.
Yoane Wissa to Score (8/5 with bet365)
I fancy Brentford to put in a strong showing on Sunday and I’m backing Yoane Wissa to get his name on the scoresheet. 8/5 may sound a little short against Spurs, however nine of his 11 league goals have arrived in home matches this season. Wissa has bagged in eight of his last 11 at the G-Tech community stadium and can do so once more against a leaky Spurs defence.
Brentford to Win & BTTS (2/1 with Sky Bet)
Tottenham have lost six of their last seven Premier League matches (D1), with no side picking up fewer points since the start of this run on 22 December (1). There has been an average of 3.57 goals per game in Ange Postecoglou’s 61 Premier League games as Spurs boss, the highest ratio of any manager with 50+ games managed (120 for, 98 against).
Brentford are the Premier League’s leading scorers on home soil this season (29), and only Arsenal and Liverpool have collected more points in home matches. With Brentford having considerably longer to prepare as Spurs were in Europa League action on Thursday, I’m backing the Bees to win the match with both teams scoring.

How both teams go into Brentford vs Tottenham
Brentford’s Premier League campaign has been average, and they have recently encountered a slump. Thomas Frank’s team, known for their attacking play, won only two of their last eight league matches, suffering four losses in that stretch. Notably, three of those losses occurred at home against top contenders: Nottingham Forest, Arsenal, and Liverpool. As a result, the Bees currently sit in 11th place, having achieved nine victories from their first 23 matches. They have scored 42 goals, ranking as the sixth-best attack, but their defence is been a concern, conceding 40 goals—more than any other team in the top 13.
Meanwhile, Tottenham are in a more severe crisis, currently positioned 15th in the league. They have lost 13 of their first 23 matches despite having the league’s second-best attack. Spurs are on a seven-game winless streak, comprising six losses and one draw. Whether Ange Postecoglou can turn the situation around to secure his position as Spurs’ head coach remains to be seen.

Tottenham is facing an injury crisis, with Guglielmo Vicario, Dominic Solanke, Destiny Udogie, Brennan Johnson, and Timo Werner all ruled out. Radu Dragusin, Cristian Romero and James Maddison are also on the treatment table.
