Brentford vs Tottenham LIVE: Premier League latest score and goal updates

27 mins: Tottenham haven’t got going at all yet. Pontus Jansson is sticking close to Harry Kane not allowing the forward any room on the ball when it’s played up to him.

Spurs maintain a bit of possession outside the Brentford penalty area but Rodrigo Bentancur fancies a go from range and fires it well wide.

24 mins: Spurs lose the ball in the middle of the pitch despite some trickery from Son and the comes loose to Pontus Jansson. He boots it down the right wing where Ivan Toney is free to run into space. He brings the ball down and fires an early pass into the box for Bryan Mbuemo but Tottenham manage to turn it behind for another Brentford corner.

21 mins: Christian Eriksen is running the show for Brentford and attempts to slip in Ivan Toney. The pass it intercepted and comes out to Bryan Mbuemo who wins the Bees another corner - their fifth of the game.

Eriksen floats the set piece over to Toney who once again volleys the ball towards goal but Cristian Romero blocks this attempt out of play.

18 mins: Save! What a stop this is from Hugo Lloris. Christian Eriksen whips a pacey corner into the box and picks out Ivan Toney who meets it with a powerful header at goal. Lloris leaps to his right and sticks out his right arm. In real time it looks as though he palmed the ball clear of the back post but the replay shows Toney’s effort striking the crossbar and bouncing clear.

15 mins: Son’s corner kick is easily dealt with by Brentford and Saman Ghoddos carries the ball clear before holding it up for his teammates to arrive.

It’s been a bright start from Brentford. Tottenham are certainly in a game here.

12 mins: Cristian Romero flicks an aerial pass into the box for Harry Kane who’s pounced on quickly by Pontus Jansson. The defender seems to collide with Kane as he challenges for the ball and Kane goes down. He doesn’t make much of the incident though and the referee lets play continue with Spurs winning a corner.

9 mins: Tottenham play the ball past the Brentford press and send it up to Harry Kane. He spins towards goal and threads a pass into the box for Dejan Kulusevski. Rice Henry’s put on the burners though to get back into position and intercepts the ball before it reaches the Spurs winger and the Bees take over possession.

6 mins: Christian Eriksen is warmly welcomed by the travelling Tottenham fans as he goes over to take a corner kick. He floats his cross over to Ivan Toney who keeps it alive with a flick back into the middle of the box. There’s another deflection and the home side are awarding a second attempt from the corner.

It’s a similar ball across to Toney who goes for goal this time and volleys an effort at the target. This time the shot is blocked by Son, I think, before Spurs clear their lines.

3 mins: Brentford are aggressively pressing up the pitch and they’re rewarded for their persistence as they recover the ball. Bryan Mbuemo makes a run down the inside right channel and lets fly winning a corner when the ball is deflected wide of goal.

Tottenham get the game underway at the Brentford Community Stadium. They are hoping to bounceback from a 1-0 defeat to Brighton last time out and regain fourth place off Arsenal.
