Which team did Brentford beat 3–0 during the 2026–27 Premier League opening round?
Answer
Tottenham Hotspur
Answer
Tottenham Hotspur
Brentford beat Tottenham Hotspur 3–0 during the 2026–27 Premier League opening round.
The match took place at Brentford’s Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday 22 August 2026. Brentford scored three times and prevented Tottenham from finding the net, producing one of the round’s five clean-sheet victories. It was also one of two opening-round matches to finish 3–0, alongside Arsenal’s win over Coventry City.
The result gave Brentford an ideal start at home. Opening-weekend victories are especially valuable because the league table begins with all clubs level on zero points, meaning a large win immediately improves a team’s goal difference.
Tottenham’s defeat was one of two 3–0 losses suffered by London clubs in Matchweek 1. Coventry lost by the same score to Arsenal, while Chelsea later won 3–2 away at Fulham. The Brentford–Tottenham fixture should therefore be distinguished from the separate Arsenal–Coventry result.
