Brentford v Arsenal Preview

Brentford’s Form

Brentford haven’t quite reached the heights of last season (yet anyway) with them currently eleventh with four wins, four draws and four defeats from their opening twelve league games. They have three wins and two defeats in their last five league games.

Most recently before the international break their three-game league winning run ended at the hands of Liverpool 3-0. However, that result doesn’t tell the full story with both sides very evenly matched on the XG stats with Liverpool’s total of 1.56 fractionally higher than their 1.45.

It should be noted though that Brentford is a club which is modelled on “Choosing Wisely” makes smart decisions and working off statistics like the Expected Goals stat which is one of the metrics they judge long-term success on. Thus, it’s interesting to note that while the club are currently eleventh, their Expected Points have them substantially higher in seventh place.

Brentford’s Last Five Results

Arsenal’s Form

Arsenal have continued where they let off from last season, starting the season strongly with them currently in third place with a record of eight wins, three draws and only one defeat in the league, they’re only a point off Manchester City at the top of the table.

Arsenal before the international break made it ten points earned in their last five league games following a 3-1 victory over Burnley following goals from Trossard, Saliba and Zinchenko. Although they did finish the game with ten men after Viera got sent off.

With the two sides above them (Manchester City and Liverpool) playing one another it’s an opportunity for Arsenal to go at least second and maybe even top (if results go their way). Interestingly though on the Expected Points table, Arsenal are fifth which suggests their performances aren’t quite as strong as their league position suggests.

Key Players To Watch

Bryan Mbeumo - Brentford

In the absence of Ivan Toney, Mbuembo has really stepped up to the mark this season with six goals and two assists from his opening twelve league appearances. Normally a tricker winger with lightning pace, he has also effectively led the line for Brentford when called upon.

Bukayo Sake -Arsenal

From one exciting right-winger to the World Class Arsenal wide man who has really stepped up to the mark these last eighteen months. This season in seventeen matches in all competitions he has six goals and eight assists and looks to be only getting better, a frightening prospect for opposition defenses.

Brentford v Arsenal Prediction & Best Bet

Prediction: Brentford 1-2 Arsenal

This game pits two London sides against one another who both had largely positive signs of progress these last few seasons.

However, while Arsenal are third, the Expected Points table has them in fifth place with 22.61 points which puts them far closer to Brentford’s total of 19.86 than eight places and eleven points would suggest in the league.

Thus, I expect this to be a far closer affair than many would predict. Arsenal still win this, but it certainly isn’t a certainty and should be tight.

Best Bet: Arsenal Win + Under 3.5 Goals 6/4
