Crystal Palace vs Brentford Prediction

Crystal Palace Form

In their last three outings, Crystal Palace won 1-0 against Stockport County, beat Leicester by 0-2 and hammered West Ham 0-2. Crystal Palace claimed just a single measly home win from a possible six in the Premier League, which also saw them drawing three and losing two matches, in which they scored seven and conceded 12 goals.

Brentford Form

Brentford only managed to gain a single draw in their past three games. First, they suffered a 0-1 defeat against Plymouth. Then a 2-2 draw with Manchester City followed, before Liverpool claimed a 0-2 victory. Brentford only have one paltry win to show from the last six away games in the Premier League. In these six matches they drew two and lost three as well as being outscored by seven goals to eight.

With Crystal Palace in relatively good shape these days, we aim for the home win, when they take on Brentford. The value lies with the former, with form a little too dubious for the visitors.

Crystal Palace are looking at a record of six wins, nine draws and seven defeats in the Premier League this season. Brentford are looking at eight wins, four draws and ten defeats in the Premier League.
