At their ground, they frequently see scores of 0-0 (7 times in 16 games) or 1-0 (6 times). Their attack has been proficient, scoring in 8 of their last 10 Premier League games.

Team analysis: Brentford
The visiting team currently sits in 11th position, with 46 points from 13 wins, 7 draws, and 13 losses. In their penultimate match, they drew away against Arsenal (1-1), followed by a home victory over Brighton & Hove Albion (4-2) in their last match. In their last 10 league games, Brentford has achieved 5 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses, accumulating 17 points from 30 available.

Brentford enters this match with optimism after a strong 4-2 victory. Goals from Bryan Mbeumo (2), Yoane Wissa, and Christian Nørgaard ensured the win against Brighton, making it three consecutive matches without a loss in the Premier League. Like their opponents, Brentford, managed by Thomas Frank, is expected to adopt a 4-3-3 tactical setup, featuring an attacking trio of Yoane Wissa, Kevin Schade, and Bryan Mbeumo. However, when playing away, Brentford may adopt a more cautious strategy aimed at maintaining defensive solidity and exploiting counterattacks. Coach Thomas Frank will be without Nathan Collins, who is suspended, as well as Josh Dasilva, Igor Thiago, and Fábio Carvalho, who are currently injured.
