Brentford vs Chelsea Prediction
Brentford Form
Brentford currently look solid, going undefeated in three matches, which started by drawing 1-1 against Sunderland. They followed that up by sharing the spoils with Bournemouth in a 2-2 encounter, before beating Reading in a 1-2 encounter. 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 four and lost zero, as they scored 11 and conceded five goals.
Chelsea Form
In their last three matches, Chelsea lost 2-1 against Arsenal, won 6-3 against Leeds, and drew 2-2 with Hull. Chelsea managed to win just once in their past six away games in the Premier League. On top of winning once they also drew one as well as losing four, while scoring 13 time and letting in six.
With the results that Chelsea have picked up lately, we favour them to grab another win, when going up against Brentford at Gtech Community Stadium.
