Tottenham Hotspur and Brentford face off on Saturday in an English Premier League showdown at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. 

Tottenham Hotspur vs Brentford Odds

Tottenham Hotspur is the favorite in this game sitting at -120 while Brentford is the underdog sitting at +310. The total in this game sits at 2.5 goals with the over paying out at -130. 

Tottenham Hotspur Betting Preview

Tottenham currently sits in 7th place in the standings having picked up 57 points. Tottenham Hotspur’s last game came against Aston Villa and they were defeated 2-1. It really wasn’t even that close, and the only goal scored by Tottenham Hotspur was in the 90th minute by Harry Kane on a penalty kick. Hugo Lloris, Ryan Sessegnon, and Rodrigo Bentancur are all dealing with long term injuries and they have been ruled out the rest of the year. This Tottenham offense is talented, but they haven’t been consistent enough, and that can’t let them down here. They need the offense to find the offensive success early.

Brentford Betting Preview

On the other side of this matchup is Brentford who sits in 9th place in the standings having picked up 53 points. Brentford’s last game came against West Ham United and they were able to secure the 2-0 victory. Brentford had 54 percent of the possession and 10 shots on target. Bryan Mbeumo scored the 20th minute and Yoane Wissa scored in the 43rd minute. Toney has been suspended for the next eight games and that is a big loss for this team. Christian Norgaard is dealing with an Achilles injury and he isn’t going to be able to go here. In this game it’s going to need to be the defense that steps up. 

Shane’s Free Pick

Tottenham Hotspur’s offense is a big issue and it’s not going to get any easier in this game. Tottenham is going to score any goals, and they are going to max out at one goal here. Brentford also is going to score a max of one goal, and this game is going to stay under the total. Back the under to cash.
