Brentford vs Tottenham Prediction 2 February 2025

🔊 Are we expecting one of the most exciting matches of the Premier League round? Looking at this matchup, one involuntarily expects a high-scoring game. On February 2, the "Bees" will host the "Spurs" at their home "Brentford Community" and will do so as favorites. The hosts have far fewer personnel losses and are higher in the table, so the bookmaker odds are fair. However, when making a prediction, it is worth considering a number of other factors, which we will do.

📊 Head-to-Head

In the 21st century, the teams have played 8 head-to-head matches, and Tottenham, having won 4 of them, looks clearly preferable. Brentford has only been stronger once, but it is worth noting that in 4 of the last 5 matches, the "Bees" have scored at least twice against the "Spurs." Considering the current conditions of the opponents, a bet on the individual total of the hosts over 1.5 goals has serious prospects.

🔴 Brentford

The team is not having the best January, but this is easily explained by the difficulty of their schedule. As soon as the level of opposition decreases, Thomas Frank's team collects three points. This was the case in matches against Southampton (5:0) and Crystal Palace (2:1). Although, considering the strong form of the "Glaziers," Brentford's victory in the last round was a surprise for many. Usually, the "Bees" look weak away, but this time they showed excellent play, which brought them close to the top-10. We won't focus on the hosts' losses since five players in the infirmary haven't been on the field for a very long time.

⚪ Tottenham

The "Spurs" are struggling in the Premier League, managing to lose even to a deeply crisis-hit Leicester (1:2). Their winless streak in the domestic championship has reached seven matches, with points gained only once during this stretch - in a game against Wolverhampton (2:2). However, huge personnel problems did not prevent Ange Postecoglou's team from taking 4th place in the overall stage of the Europa League, securing a spot in the playoffs. Now they can fully focus on improving their positions in the Premier League, but doing so with such a catastrophe in the infirmary will be difficult. Following the game with Elfsborg (3:0), Radu Dragusin joined the list of injured players. The "Lilywhites" cannot count on a large number of key players.

⚽️ Goal Prediction

The teams have exchanged goals in 5 consecutive head-to-head meetings, and it's hard to find reasons why this trend might stop. Both concede far too much. Therefore, our bet is Both teams to score (yes), which has also hit in 5 consecutive Tottenham matches in the Premier League.

🚩 Corner Prediction

Brentford has a rather modest record for corners earned, even when considering only home matches (5). And we don't think that the "Bees" will significantly exceed their standard mark since they have made less than 7 corner kicks in 5 consecutive head-to-head meetings with Tottenham in the Premier League. For this reason, total under 6.5 corners from the hosts is an attractive option for betting.

📝 Match Prediction

For 5 consecutive head-to-head encounters, the teams have not only pleased with scoring but have put on real spectacles, scoring at least four goals each time. Therefore, the question we asked at the beginning of the prediction seems rhetorical. We are again expecting a bright game with end-to-end action and are betting on total over 3.5 goals. As for the result, it is quite difficult to predict. But most likely, starting to emerge from their crisis on such a challenging away trip will not work out for Tottenham. We believe a draw is the maximum that the "Spurs" can hope for. Based on this, a score of 2:2 seems one of the most likely outcomes.
