Brentford vs Burnley Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 21st October 2023

Despite their unconvincing form, Brentford stand a good chance of adding three more points to their account in round nine. They face Burnley on Saturday, and they'll be disappointed to miss out on a win at Gtech Community Stadium.

Brentford approach the next Premier League round as number 15 in the table, having claimed seven points this season so far. With eight games behind them, Burnley amassed four points, placing them as number 18 before their next fixture.

Burnley took a massive beating in their last encounter, and look to make amends on Saturday. Brentford should face a seriously motivated visiting team.

Brentford only average a modest 1.5 goals per game in their last ten matches in this tournament, in which they scored 15 goals. They also conceded 13 for an average of 1.3 per game. They kept their opponents from scoring twice.

Burnley are currently not the most scoring team in the Premier League, as they only found the back of the net nine times in ten matches. This is an average of just 0.9 goals a game in which they conceded 23 times, an average of 2.3 per game. They managed zero clean sheets in these.

Burnley were knocked out cold when Brentford took a 2-0 win in their latest encounter. It served as pay back for the 3-1 defeat, Burnley handed out in the game before.

Brentford vs Burnley Prediction

Brentford Form

A solitary draw point prevents Brentford from having nothing to show for their previous three games. They came up short in a 0-1 defeat against Arsenal, before drawing 1-1 with Nottingham Forest. They came up empty-handed once again when Manchester United ran out as 2-1 winners. Brentford only pulled off two wins from a possible six in recent Premier League matches on home soil. Of the remaining four matches, they drew three and lost one, as they scored nine and conceded eight goals.

Burnley Form

It is all or nothing with Burnley following one win in their previous three outings. They first went down 2-0 in an encounter with Newcastle to which, they replied by beating Luton1-2. Their latest encounter once again had them on the losing side, when they lost 1-4 against Chelsea. Burnley, meanwhile, won twice, while they've drawn two and lost two in their last six away in the Premier League.

It seems both Burnley and Brentford have some issues concerning their defence, as they seem to find themselves on the receiving end a bit too often lately. We believe the trend continues this coming Saturday, and we are rooting for goals.

Brentford have so far been able to win just once after eight Premier League games played, in stead showing off four draws and three defeats. Burnley have one win, one draw and six defeats in the Premier League.
