The stats
Since Brentford sealed promotion to the top flight in 2021, these two clubs have met on nine occasions.
Spurs have won five of those contests, with the Bees sealing victory just once, and that came back in May 2023.
The North Londoners won the most recent meeting 2-0 less than a month ago.
Brentford have scored 28 Premier League goals this season, which is one more than Spurs.
Frank’s men do have a better defensive record, however, conceding 23 goals compared to the 26 that the Bees have let in.
Both teams have scored in just two of Brentford’s previous six matches in all competitions.
Spurs have kept clean sheets in three of their last five matches stretching back to the start of December.
Richarlison is the top scorer for Spurs this season with eight goals in all competitions.
Igor Thiago leads the way for Brentford, having scored 12 goals already this season.

Prediction
Andrews will be determined to avenge the 2-0 loss to Spurs at the beginning of December when these clubs meet on New Year’s Day.
Having won back-to-back Premier League matches, a third successive victory could see the Bees move up to sixth place if other results go their way.
Inconsistency has plagued the North Londoners throughout the campaign. For every step forward, Spurs then tend to take two steps back.
Spurs have won five away matches in the top flight this season, but Brentford should seal victory in this clash and pile more pressure on their former boss Frank in the process.
