Brentford vs Tottenham Hotspur
Brentford versus Tottenham Hotspur concluded Saturday’s matches in the 2026–27 Premier League opening round.
The fixture was the final Saturday game on 22 August 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 17:30 BST. It followed three simultaneous afternoon matches involving Hull City, Ipswich Town, Everton, Crystal Palace, Nottingham Forest and Leeds United.
Brentford won the match 3–0. The result gave them an immediate three points and a strong goal difference, putting them among the early leaders after the first round.
Tottenham were one of the established Premier League clubs beginning the season under a new manager, Roberto De Zerbi. The opening weekend therefore combined a substantial victory for Brentford with a difficult start for Spurs.
