Brentford<\/a> host Tottenham<\/a> at Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday, August 22 (12:30 PM ET \/ 11:30 AM CT \/ 9:30 AM PT).<\/p>\n

Brentford will be missing the injured Antoni Milambo and the sidelined Sepp van den Berg, but Igor Thiago, Kevin Schade and Dango Ouattara head into this one as the front-line trio most likely to lead the attack at Gtech Community Stadium. Tottenham’s team news is heavier: the injured Xavi Simons, Wilson Odobert, Dejan Kulusevski and Cristian Romero are all out, along with the sidelined James Maddison and Mateus Fernandes, while the doubtful Mohammed Kudus, Micky van de Ven, Destiny Udogie and Dominic Solanke round out a lengthy fitness list. Richarlison and Joao Palhinha look like the two certainties Spurs can build around.<\/p>\n

Brentford head into the new season off the back of a 2-2 home draw with Crystal Palace to close out last time, while Tottenham’s last outing ended in a 2-1 defeat away at Chelsea. With the Premier League season just getting underway, both sides are starting from a blank record, and the market leans toward Brentford at home given Tottenham’s lengthy fitness list. Expect goals at both ends: Igor Thiago and Richarlison were both their side’s leading source of end product last season, and neither team looks built to keep a clean sheet with this many changes to work through.<\/p>\n
