Brentford and Tottenham Set for Premier League Opener

Brentford will face Tottenham in their Premier League opener at the Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday evening. Both teams are coming off successful pre-seasons, with Tottenham remaining unbeaten in seven matches and Brentford winning their last four.

This summer, Tottenham made headlines by breaking their transfer record twice, acquiring Mateus Fernandes and Sandro Tonali for a total of £185 million. Head coach Roberto De Zerbi expressed satisfaction with the team's signings and emphasized the importance of character and style of play in winning matches.

Brentford has a strong home record against Tottenham, having never lost a Premier League home game to them since their return to the top flight in 2021. Tottenham will be without Micky van de Ven due to training issues, while Brentford's squad is mostly fit, with a few players sidelined. The match kicks off at 5:30 PM BST and will be broadcast live in the UK on Sky Sports.
