Brentford vs Tottenham Match Preview

Brentford host Tottenham Hotspur in matchday seventeen of the English league in this London derby.

The home team in their last match before the break left with an away win from the home of Manchester City, showing that this year they will try to avoid difficult times. In seven home games this year they have lost just once, while in the most recent London derby against Chelsea at home they were held to a bore draw just like last year with Tottenham.

The visitors, on the other hand, have been without important players in the last month after being at the World Cup and some of them, like captain Kane, will be asked to manage the failure and get into league rhythm. Those who competed at the World Cup will be absent as well as those who are injured, which makes Tottenham's mission difficult when you factor in the difficulties they face away from home as they have managed just three wins in seven matches.

In conclusion, I expect a game where both teams will try to avoid defeat so that they can have good morale for the next games, however I feel that the odds are unfair to Brentford. I will bet 3 units on the 1X double chance at odds of 1.93 which I consider quite high.
