Brentford got the better of Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in their last outing and on the back of this impressive win, they will look to edge their way to another three points in their second successive London derby.
Brentford managed to successfully absorb a huge amount of pressure from Chelsea before launching a couple of devastating and rewarding counter attacks at Stamford Bridge, the Bees thus becoming the first ever side to triumph in their first three Premier League matches at this venue. This win put to an end Chelsea’s mini-revival and earned for Thomas Frank’s men local bragging rights. Indeed, Brentford are enjoying their own mini-revival, a 3-0 thumping of Burnley the previous weekend meaning that they have won two league games on the bounce for the first time this term.
Frank’s men failed to win any of their opening six games, however having taken six points from their last two they have hauled themselves into the top half of the Premier League table where they currently sit in tenth position after ten rounds of fixtures.
West Ham United dumped Arsenal out of the EFL Cup earlier this week and condemned the Gunners to a 32nd successive season without February silverware. David Moyes’ men will be relishing their quarter-final clash with Liverpool next month but as things stand they need to improve their showing in the Premier League where they have failed to win their last three, the Hammers sharing the spoils with Newcastle United before losing to Aston Villa and Everton.
The Hammers have shown a large amount of defensive frailty on their travels this season and given Brentford’s penchant for goals at the Community Stadium, we envisage them getting the better of their fatigued opponents on Saturday afternoon with both sides adding to the scoresheet.
