Which club kept a clean sheet in Brentford’s 3–0 opening-weekend win in the 2026–27 Premier League?

The story behind the answer

Brentford kept a clean sheet in their 3–0 opening-weekend win over Tottenham Hotspur in the 2026–27 Premier League.

Brentford hosted Tottenham at Brentford Community Stadium on Saturday 22 August 2026 and won without conceding. In football terminology, a clean sheet means a team allows its opponent to score zero goals.

The shutout gave Brentford three points and a +3 goal difference. It also left Tottenham with no goals scored in their opening fixture, despite playing a full Premier League match away from home.

Other opening-weekend clean sheets included Arsenal against Coventry City, Hull City against Manchester United and Brighton against Aston Villa. That makes it important to identify the match named in the question: Brentford’s clean sheet belonged to the club that won 3–0, not the defeated visitors. The answer is therefore Brentford.
