Brentford vs Brighton Match Preview And Prediction
Brentford vs Brighton: In the game over the weekend against Manchester United, Brentford took 31 shots. Brighton enters this game having suffered four losses in their previous five Premier League away games. Four days prior, Ivan Toney gave himself multiple opportunities to score against the Red Devils.
On Saturday night, Brentford’s players felt unfairly done by a 1-1 draw with Manchester United, even though they scored the extremely late equalizer in the 99th minute. For the occasion, the Bees put up one of their greatest shows of the entire season.
They dominated Manchester United, having multiple opportunities to score in the closing minutes but failing to do so until Kristoffer Ajer’s equalizer in the ninth minute of extra time. In terms of outcomes, Brentford’s predicament became more dire following the Red Devils’ draw. The team led by Thomas Frank has lost its last seven league games.
With eight games remaining, they are just five points above the red zone line. On Wednesday night, the Bees will be looking to end this losing streak and win a crucial three-pointer. At Gtech Community Stadium, Brentford takes on Brighton in one of the more intriguing games of Gameweek No. 31.
The Seagulls go into the match fresh off a 1-2 loss on the road at Liverpool, the new Premier League leaders. Danny Welbeck gave Roberto De Zerbi’s team an early lead, but the Reds proved to be too strong for them in the end at Anfield.
Brighton will be coming off two victories in a row against the Bees. The streak includes a 2-1 triumph at The Amex in December of last year. In the 16 prior trips to Gtech Community Stadium, the Seagulls had only emerged victorious 5 times. Less than three goals have been scored in five of the last seven head-to-head matches.
Brentford vs Brighton: Betting Analysis
Brentford had a brilliant game against Manchester United on Saturday, drawing 1-1. It speaks volumes that the Bees recorded 31 shots on the occasion. Bryan Mbeumo, a crucial attacker who entered the game four days ago off the bench during the second half against the Red Devils, is back, which is fantastic news for Thomas Frank.
Brighton hasn’t been playing well lately when traveling. In their last eight league away games, they have only triumphed once. The Seagulls have also suffered four losses in their last five Premier League away games. We think it makes sense to support Brentford at the 2.45 odds to take home the victory.
All but one of Brighton’s prior league away games saw them give up two or more goals. Ivan Toney, the talisman for Brentford, ought to have plenty of room to shoot in the last third. On Saturday, he had numerous opportunities to score and even had a goal against Manchester United disallowed. The 2.20 chances that Toney can score at any time against Brighton are appealing to us.
