Match Preview
Brentford hosts Chelsea at the Brentford Community Stadium in what promises to be an intriguing London derby. The Bees are currently struggling for form with just one win in their last five matches (LDDLW), while Chelsea arrives with a strong run of three consecutive victories (DWWWW). This disparity in form could play a crucial role in the outcome of the match, as Brentford will need to find a way to break their recent slump against a confident Chelsea side.
Historically, Chelsea has had the upper hand in their encounters, winning five of the last ten meetings, with Brentford managing only two victories. However, Brentford's home advantage should not be overlooked, as they have shown resilience in front of their fans. A key angle to consider is Brentford's ability to score at home, which could lead to both teams finding the net, given Chelsea's attacking prowess. With both sides likely to push for a result, expect an open game that could see goals at both ends.
