Brentford v Chelsea Match Prediction – Preview
Brentford F.C.
Brentford is currently seated 9th in the Premier League table with 13 points. In their last outing, they saw off Brighton & Hove Albion 2-0 at the Gtech Community Stadium. Ivan Toney put on a masterful display, as he put the Bees in front with his backheel on Frank Onyeka’s cutback. Later, Toney converted from the spot after he was taken down by Joel Veltman. Manager Thomas Frank called their most recent result “a beautiful, ugly win” as he felt his men could’ve done more. Could they heed his call as they take on the Blues next?
Brentford haven’t won any of their midweek (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday) EPL matches (D1 L5). Their match against Crystal Palace (1-1) produced their only point in such matches.
The Bees have not scored in 4 of the 6 London derbies in the EPL (W2 D2 L2). They won only in the matches they were able to net (2-0 both against Arsenal and West Ham United last campaign).
Chelsea F.C.
Chelsea are now seated 4th in the table, 6 points clear of Brentford. They too were successful over the weekend, thrashing Aston Villa 2-0 at Villa Park. Mason Mount opened the scoring when he pounced on Tyrone Mings’ error and finished from close range on 6 minutes. He doubled the lead in the second, as his stunning free kick from 20 yards went past Emiliano Buendia. Kepa Arrizabalaga also made crucial saves, producing a clean sheet on the other end. Manager Graham Potter hailed the victory as a “hard fought game,” crediting the Villans for keeping the pressure on the Blues. As they try to tighten their hold on their top four slot, how will they fare in the upcoming London derby?
The away team won all three games between Brentford and Chelsea in all matches last season. The Blues has two victories at the Community Stadium: 1-0 in the EPL and 2-0 in the EFL Cup).
Only on Fridays (37.5%) do Chelsea have a lower win rate on a particular day of the week in the EPL than they do on Wednesdays (47% – 64 wins in 137 matches).
