Only a goal from Janelt Vitaly in the 29th minute separates these two London teams.

A courageous head block from Richarlison After a powerful shot from Bryan Mbeumo in the first half, time has added the spirit of the Spurs today, but Brentford’s superiority is highlighted by expected objectives of 1.14 Against only 0.37 for Tottenham.
