The preview
Brentford host Tottenham Hotspur at the Gtech Community Stadium in the early days of the new season, both sides still nil-nil on the ledger with nothing but ambition to show for it. Spurs go in as favorites but the odds have Brentford at plus-140, so the market isn't writing off the Bees just yet, and the over-under sits at a tight 2.5 goals.
Expect Brentford to sit compact and dare Spurs to break them down with a clinical through ball rather than trade chances end to end. Bold prediction: Brentford nick a 1-0 shocker off a scrappy set piece, and Spurs fans spend the week calling it shambolic.
