EFL was not a priority for Spurs
Before the first game in EFL for Tottenham, Jose Mourinho claimed that he would use not the regular starters and instead provide minutes to the back-ups. Somehow, Spurs managed to eliminate Chelsea and Stoke City. Our team is confident that the Portuguese is not going to underestimate the importance of EFL Cup and will use his best players for the game.
Brentford eliminated 3 EPL Clubs
Brentford is having a decent season so far. The team is currently on the 4th place in Championship. Brentford has not recorded a single loss in 16 games in the domestic league. Considering the team’s performance in Carabao Cup, Brentford eliminated 3 clubs from Premier League – West Bromich (3-2); Fulham (3-0) and Newcastle (1-0).
The verdict
We should appraise the current from of Brentford and their performance in Championship but the Spurs is aiming to win as many trophies as possible. Jose Mourinho will use the best of his squad through their way to the final.
