Ranked as number 11 in the Premier League standings, Brentford, have so far collected seven points this season, while Wolverhampton collected one points. This puts them up as number 20 after six rounds.

Brentford took down Wolverhampton in their most recent meeting, and bookmakers deem another win for the home side a likely scenario this coming Saturday.

Brentford are relatively average in the art of goal-scoring these days. They scored a steady 12 goals in their previous ten matches, for an average of 1.2 per game. They simultaneously allowed their opponents 16 goals, or an average of 1.6 a game. Furthermore, they fought their way to one clean sheets in this run.

Wolverhampton travel to their next Premier League match, averaging a lowly one goals per game in their last ten matches. They scored a disappointing total of ten goals, while also conceding 27 goals. That amounts to an average of 2.7 per game, in which they kept their opponents from scoring zero times.

Brentford vs Wolverhampton Prediction

Brentford Form

In has been a bit of everything for Brentford in their previous three matches, where they first beat Leyton Orient by 3-1. This was followed by a disappointing 3-1 defeat against Tottenham, before an encounter with West Ham produced a 1-1 draw. Brentford won three of their previous six matches at Gtech Community Stadium in the Premier League. They drew two and suffered one defeats, scoring ten goals to seven against.

Retaining their Premier League status and challenging for a top half finish will be on the agenda for Wolverhampton this season.

Wolverhampton Form

Wolverhampton were unable to pick up a single good result in their last three matches, as they were first beaten 3-2 by Brighton. Next up, Aston Villa won 3-1, before losing 1-2 against Liverpool. Wolverhampton are winless in their last six away games in the Premier League, in which they drew two and lost four. They conceded 15 goals while scoring five themselves.

A top half finish is the dream target for Wolverhampton, although retaining their Premier League status has to be the priority.

They usually throw caution to the wind, when clashing with each other, and with both Brentford and Wolverhampton scoring freely over the past weeks, we expect a highly entertaining match.

Brentford recorded six points following two wins from their last two games against teams placed among the bottom six. They scored five goals, but also conceded two. Brentford only drew once so far this season after six games played, in stead recording two wins and three defeats in the Premier League. Wolverhampton are looking at zero wins, one draw and five defeats in the Premier League.
