Is Tottenham vs Brentford on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Carabao Cup semi-final tonight
Brentford take on Tottenham in north London tonight as both clubs seek a place in the final of the Carabao Cup.
Tottenham’s last honour came in this very competition thirteen years ago, and with a manager of Jose Mourinho’s trophy-winning pedigree at the helm, it could well be that this term’s Carabao Cup represents the team’s best opportunity to add another piece of silverware since that triumph in 2007/08.

Prediction
It would not be a total surprise to see Brentford pull off another upset here – certainly not against a club with Spurs’ history of failing to get over the line. However, Tottenham’s emphatic 3-0 Premier League win against Leeds at the weekend might have come at just the right time. Tottenham 2-1 Brentford.
