A London Derby is set for the Gtech Community Stadium on Jan 1, as Tottenham travel to Brentford. Find the odds and our picks for the clash here.

Tottenham’s confidence should high following a professional 1-0 win against Crystal Palace in their latest outing. A second successive win could see them re-emerge as a contender for a European finish.

However, Brentford have been one of the best EPL teams in home fixtures this season, and they have excelled in recent fixtures after winning each of their last two.

Bees Chasing Third Straight Win

Keith Andrews has done an excellent job at Brentford, and their form sees them come into this round of fixtures sitting eighth.

The Bees have avoided defeat in their last three, and they have recorded wins in each of their last two. Brentford were excellent on Saturday, with Kevin Schade netting a hat-trick in a 4-1 home win against Bournemouth.

They have now won six of their nine home matches in 2025-26, scoring a remarkable average of 2.2 goals per game.

Possible Lineup
(4-2-3-1) Kelleher (GK); Kayode, Ajer, Collins, Henry; Henderson, Janelt; Lewis-Potter, Jensen, Schade; Thiago

Spurs Chasing Successive Wins

Thomas Frank returns to the Gtech Community Stadium for the first time since leaving Brentford in the summer.

His prospects at Tottenham improved on Sunday, as Spurs ended a troubling run of form with a hard-fought 1-0 win at Crystal Palace. However, their offensive line still appears unbalanced, with a lot of their success hinging on Kudus coming up with a piece of magic.

On the road, they have been slightly better, winning five of their nine games, and scoring 16 goals compared to the eleven that they have managed in home fixtures.

Possible Lineup
(4-2-3-1) Vicario (GK); Porro, Danso, van de Ven, Udogie; Gray, Bentancur; Kudus, Tel, Odobert; Richarlison
