Brentford have won just one of their seven Premier League meetings with Tottenham, with all three at the Gtech Community Stadium ending in a draw. The team scoring first has won none of the past five Premier League meetings between Brentford and Tottenham, with Spurs coming back to win twice, Brentford once and two draws.

Four wins in seven matches is not where Tottenham Hotspur wants (or expects?) to be, and when all four victories come in non-Premier League fixtures, assessing the club’s form becomes even more challenging.
