What was the score when Brentford played Tottenham Hotspur during the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend?

Brentford beat Tottenham Hotspur 3–0 during the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend.

The match was played on Saturday 22 August 2026 at Brentford Community Stadium. It was the final Premier League fixture of the Saturday schedule, following five earlier matches across the day. Brentford’s clean-sheet victory supplied one of the round’s clearest winning margins.

The result also began Tottenham’s campaign with a defeat. Tottenham were managed by Roberto De Zerbi, while Brentford were led by Keith Andrews in the 2026–27 season. Brentford’s result later appeared in the season results table as a 3–0 home win.

Readers sometimes mix this score with Brighton’s 4–0 victory over Aston Villa on Sunday. Both were home wins by London-area or southern clubs, but Brentford’s margin was three goals and Brighton’s was four. The opponent is also important: Brentford played Tottenham, not Chelsea or Fulham.
