The pressure is mounting on Ange Postecoglou ahead of Tottenham’s fifth match of the Premier League season.
Spurs have already lost twice in 2024-25, meaning that they have lost as many games this term than they had in their opening 12 matches in 2023-24. Morale at the club likely took a significant hit following a home loss against Arsenal on Sunday, which was their second straight defeat in the Premier League.
Questions surrounding their attacking play have been asked, as they have already missed seven big chances in the English top-flight this term. Dominic Solanke is still searching for his first goal since a big-money move from Bournemouth, and Saturday will present him with a perfect opportunity to get off the mark.

An away win might seem like an unlikely Tottenham vs Brentford prediction this weekend, but Thomas Frank’s side could be an interesting selection to upset the odds on Saturday.
The Bees have made an impressive start to the campaign after winning two of their opening four matches, and their confidence remains intact despite a recent defeat at the Etihad.
Brentford’s speed on the counter-attack caused the reigning champions issues on Saturday, and they gave City a scare after taking the lead inside a minute last weekend. Once again, their counter-attacking prowess could cause another Premier League heavyweight major issues.

Spurs claimed a 3-2 win in the previous encounter between the two sides in the Premier League. However, the Bees avoided defeat in four previous encounters before that loss. Three of the last five meetings have ended in draws.
Bet hereA lot of attention will likely be on Dominic Solanke this weekend, as the striker looks to open his Spurs account against Brentford. The Englishman has netted three times in seven previous appearances against the Bees, but has been on the winning side against this weekend’s rivals on just one occasion.
Solanke missed two great opportunities against Arsenal last weekend, but there is a sense that a goal is coming after averaging 2.5 shots per game in the Premier League for Spurs this term.
Only Southampton and Man City have recorded more passes than Tottenham in the Premier League so far this season, meaning it is a fair assessment that the home side will dominate the possession.
However, that tactic could play into the hands of Brentford, who have been excellent on the counter-attack in their four outings already this term.
Tottenham could be vulnerable when the ball is turned over on Saturday, especially if Pedro Porro and Destiny Udogie continue to play higher up the field.
While Tottenham may be favoured in the odds, a draw could be the more reasonable prediction. The Bees have already proven hard to beat against possession-based teams. Tottenham’s continued defensive issues this term could see there be value in siding with Postecoglou’s side dropping points on Saturday.
Bryan Mbeumo has been the consistent star for Brentford across the last two seasons, carrying the load last term in the absence of Ivan Toney.
The striker’s ability is often overlooked, but he has netted more times in Premier League appearances against Tottenham than against any other rival. He could offer value when making a Tottenham vs Brentford prediction on Saturday.
