Brentford beat Tottenham Hotspur 3–0 on the opening Saturday of the 2026–27 Premier League.
The match was played at Brentford Community Stadium on 22 August 2026. It was the last Saturday fixture of the opening round, following Hull City versus Manchester United, Ipswich Town versus Sunderland, Everton versus Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest versus Leeds United.
The three-goal victory made Brentford one of the opening round’s most convincing winners. A clean sheet also meant Tottenham failed to score, a detail that separates this result from several other matches in the round that produced goals for both teams.
The score is sometimes confused with Brighton’s 4–0 victory over Aston Villa, the largest home win of the opening round. Brentford’s result was 3–0, while Brighton won by four goals on the following Sunday.
