Command Analysis
Brentford
Current form
Brentford fought for European cups throughout last season, but at crucial moments could not prove themselves to the fullest, due to lack of experience. As a result, the bees finished in ninth place and did not qualify for the European Cup. In the summer, the Londoners managed to retain their top scorer, Igor Tiago, who scored 22 goals in the Premier League last season, only Holland scored more. Keith Andrews' team did not have many sparring sessions, they scored victories over Rennes (4:2) and defeated Eintracht (7:0). It should be noted that last season in the Premier League, Brentford suffered only three defeats on their own field.
Disqualifications and injuries
Milambo and van den Berg are in the infirmary.
Interesting betting trends
In three of Brentford's last four matches, there has been an exchange of goals scored.
In five of the last seven matches, the Bees had more than eight shots on target.
Tottenham failed last season, secured a place in the Premier League only in the last round, beating Everton. Roberto De Jerby, who took over the team in the spring, saved Spurs from relegation. It was under his leadership that the Londoners carried out full-fledged preparations for the start of the new season. Tottenham did not suffer a single defeat in the summer friendly matches, and in the final sparring they lost the world to Hoffenheim (2:2). The transfers clearly focused on strengthening the midfield and defense: they signed Sandro Tonali, Mateus Fernandes, Jan Paul van Heecke, Marcos Senesi and Andy Robertson.
Disqualifications and injuries
Wenger, Simons, Kudus and Kuluszewski are injured, van de Ven is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
Tottenham have not lost by offside in 11 of their last 12 matches.
Goal exchanges have been recorded in four of Tottenham's last five matches.
Tottenham are entering a new season under the leadership of De Jerby, who saved Spurs from relegation. In the summer, the Londoners decently strengthened the center of the field and the defensive line, looked convincing in friendly matches, and did not suffer a single defeat. We have to play against a comfortable opponent today: Tottenham have never lost to Brentford in the previous seven London derbies. We believe that with the updated squad, Spurs will be closer to victory today.
Our betting tip is a victory for Tottenham with an Asian handicap (0) for a coefficient of 2.00
When choosing a bet on goals, we start from the last face-to-face confrontations. There was no goal exchange in the previous three derbies, and Spurs did not concede a single goal in these meetings. Given that Tottenham strengthened their defensive line in the summer, we do not rule out that the series will continue.
The second bet is that at least one will not score with a coefficient of 2.40
Betting on corners
Brentford have lost three of their last four matches on corners. Nevertheless, in the line of bookmakers, bees act as the obvious favorite in the corners. We believe that there is an overestimation of the owners' corner opportunities in the line, which should be used when choosing a bet.
Betting Tip – Tottenham will not lose on corners with a coefficient of 1.80
