Brentford – Tottenham : Preview & Prediction
Tottenham have won the last two meetings with Brentford by the same 2-0 scoreline in the first leg and in the EFL Cup last season. In the last two encounters, South Korea’s Heung-Min Son has been the architect of Spurs’ victory with a goal in each game. The former Hamburg and Bayer Leverkusen striker is doing as well as the 2020-2021 season (17 goals) which was his best in terms of statistics. With 17 goals in the Premier League this season, the South Korean international has six games to score a goal and set a career best goal total. The Spurs number 7, who did not score in his team’s surprise defeat by Brighton (0-1) last time out, had scored six goals in his three previous matches for the London club against West Ham (3-1, 1 brace), Newcastle (5-1, 1 goal) and Aston Villa (4-0, 1 hat-trick). Harry Kane, on the other hand, has not scored in Spurs’ last three games, but he was decisive with one assist against Newcastle (5-1) and two assists at Aston Villa (4-0). However, the number 10 has five goals and five assists in his last nine appearances for his club and the English national team. Although his last goal came on 26 March against Switzerland (2-1), Harry Kane, who is going through a four-game goal drought, could be in for a rude awakening at the Brentford Community Stadium in London.
Son Heung-Min is the 2nd highest scorer in the Premier League with 17 goals.
Harry Kane is in the TOP 10 in the scoring charts: the 6th highest scorer has 12 goals.
The England international has scored 5 times in his last 9 games, including club and country.
The South Korean international is in good form, scoring 7 goals in his last 6 games for club and country.
Heung-Min Son has scored 4 goals in Spurs’ last 3 matches.
Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son have scored over half of Spurs’ goals (56) in the Premier League with a total of 29 goals between them. In the last seven games, the England international has scored four goals while his South Korean partner has scored seven, so Kane and/or Son should find the net on this short trip.
