Having lost away with a score of 1-0, the Spurs defeated the Beavers at home (3-0). Harry Kane scored a double for the home team, and Giovani Lo Celso scored one more goal.

Watford is in 11th place in the English Premier League standings (three points after two games). The Hornets started the championship with a 3-2 home win over Aston Villa, and they were leading 3-0 by the 67th minute. After that, Muñoz's men lost to Brighton away (2-0). Watford spent the first half unsuccessfully, conceding two unanswered goals. On August 24, the Hornets began their fight in the English League Cup. And they won again at home, beating Crystal Palace (1-0). The hosts played defense first during the entire match but managed to snatch victory in the ending after Ashley Fletcher's accurate shot.
The Spurs have a good chance of winning the upcoming game. Nuno Santo's team is in good spirits after reaching a local goal in European competitions. The resolution of the situation with Harry Kane and his return to the squad should have a positive effect on the team's performance. Tottenham has been very good at home since last season. In the last 12 matches, the Lilywhites have beaten everyone except Man United (1-3) and Aston Villa (1-2). Watford, which has recently returned from the Championship, is unlikely to gain a positive result against such an opponent away. Tottenham’s matches under Nuno Santo are not very productive. All four official games ended with Both teams to score — no and Under 3.5 goals scored. Most likely, a similar outcome should be expected in the game against Watford.
Prediction for the match: Tottenham to win and Under 3.5 goals scored
