Brentford will host Tottenham Hotspur at the Gtech Community Stadium for the opener of a season that carries genuine expectation, following their ninth-place finish last term. Contract extension for Keith Andrews indicates the club's intent after narrowly missing out on European football last season. The match is set to kick off at 17:30 BST on Saturday, 22 August 2026.
Brentford's team news reveals that Sepp van den Berg is out due to a groin issue, with Kristoffer Ajer expected to link up with Nathan Collins in defense. Yehor Yarmolyuk is also unavailable. Antoni Milambo, recovering from a serious knee injury, remains a game-time decision, with his involvement likely confirmed nearer the match. Other than those absences, Brentford has a fully fit squad at their disposal.
Record signing Mamadou Sangaré, who arrived from Lens for a club-record fee, is set to make his Premier League debut alongside Vitaly Janelt and Mathias Jensen, two of the club's longest-serving players. Dango Ouattara and Kevin Schade provide width on the wings, while Caoimhín Kelleher remains in goal behind a back four of Michael Kayode, Ajer, Collins, and Keane Lewis-Potter.
