Brentford Team News
Brentford has a fantastic campaign behind them. They finished last season in 9th place and were only two points from European football.
They finished last season with three consecutive wins and five wins in six games.
Brentford set a bar very high last season and this season it will be very difficult to replicate that success.
They are coming into this season without two key players – Ivan Toney and David Raya. Ivan Toney is suspended by the FA because of breaking betting rules and David Raya is very close to signing for Arsenal (at the time of writing this article he is still a Brentford player).
Without them, especially Toney, Brentford is a much weaker team. Without any doubt.
Three new players came to West London – Kevin Schade, Nathan Collins, and goalkeeper Mark Flekken.
Brentford was very good at home last season and suffered only two defeats. Only Liverpool, Man Utd, and Man City had fewer defeats at home.
It was very difficult to play against Brentford away. Two put that into perspective, they had nine defeats at home in the first season 2021⁄22. They failed to score in only two home games last season.
Brentford has a very acceptable schedule at the beginning of the season. Three London derbies in a row against Tottenham, Fulham, and Crystal Palace, before games against Bournemouth, Newcastle, Everton and Forest.
They will win a lot of points or be in big trouble after those games.
Tottenham Hotspur Team News
What to expect from Tottenham? No one knows. For sure this will be a completely different team, especially in terms of how they will play.
Ange Postecoglou, who came from Celtic, brings a style of play similar to the one that Tottenham played under Pochettino. Finally, they have a create midfielder in James Maddison and in friendlies, they created a lot of chances for Harry Kane.
But that’s the main problem. Harry Kane is close to leaving Tottenham. At the time of writing, Tottenham accepted Bayern’s offer for English striker. Now, it all depends on Kane’s desire to play in Germany or to stay in England and try to break Shearer’s record.
Tottenham will start a new season with a new goalkeeper, a new left-back, a new centre-back duo, a new playmaker, and a new coach, and with a different style of play.
Last season they struggled with defence. They had the 15th defence in the league. Which is terrible. And that’s the most important part which Ange must improve. Also, the Spurs struggled away from home and had more defeats (8) than victories (6).
If Kane stays, this Tottenham will be very fun to watch and a team that can prove a lot of people wrong, but if he leaves, the top 4 will be only a dream.

Brentford vs Tottenham Prediction
It’s unknown if will Kane play in the first round, but Ange said that he counts on him. We believe that Tottenham can stay undefeated in this game and start a new season with some points.
They also have an acceptable schedule and in the first five games, they will play against Brentford, Bournemouth, Burnley, and Sheffield. The hardest game will be at home against Man Utd.
Ange era has the potential to have a good start.
