Brentford will visit Elland Road this coming Sunday for a Premier League fixture with home side Leeds.

With 29 points after 19 games, Brentford currently rank eighth in the Premier League standings. Leeds play catch-up as they recorded 17 points in 18 matches, putting them up as 14th before their upcoming clash.

A win for Brentford on Sunday will see them improve on their position in the table with an aim to finish in the top six of the Premier League.

Leeds scored 15 goals, conceded 21 and fought their way to one clean sheets in their previous ten matches.

Brentford scored 16 goals, conceded 11 and kept their opponents from scoring four times in their last ten matches.

Leeds were defeated by 5-2 in their last encounter with Brentford, but did win the reverse match 2-1, though.

Leeds vs Brentford Prediction

Leeds Form

Leeds hope for some consistency, as their last three matches added four points to their account. A meeting with Cardiff resulted in a 2-2 draw, followed by a 2-1 defeat against Aston Villa, before beating Cardiff by 5-2. Leeds just have a single home win to show from their efforts in the past six Premier League matches at the Elland Road. They also drew two and lost three of these six encounters, in which they scored nine and conceded 12 goals.

Brentford Form

Results have been up and down for Brentford, who beat Liverpool by 3-1. Following that up proved too difficult, as they lost 0-1 against West Ham, before claiming three points in a 2-0 win against Bournemouth. Brentford won twice, while also recording two draws, and two defeats in their last six away matches in the Premier League. The scoreline from these matches says 12 goals conceded and seven scored.

We trust neither defence to be able to keep their opponent at bay, when Leeds welcome Brentford this coming Sunday. Goals should be flowing at both ends of the pitch.

Leeds show off a record of four wins, five draws and nine defeats in the Premier League this season. Brentford put seven wins, eight draws and four defeats on the board in the Premier League.
