Arsenal vs Brentford Prediction and Betting Tips

The Premier League is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Brentford lock horns with Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal side in an important encounter at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday. The two teams have experienced contrasting fortunes this season and will want to win this game.

Arsenal vs Brentford Preview

Brentford are currently in 12th place in the Premier League standings and have not been at their best so far this season. The away side held Chelsea to an admirable 0-0 stalemate last week and will look to take it up a notch in this fixture.

Arsenal, on the other hand, are in second place in the league table at the moment and have been in impressive form this season. The Gunners stunned Real Madrid with a 3-0 victory in the UEFA Champions League in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar scoreline this weekend.

Arsenal vs Brentford Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

Arsenal have a good historical record against Brentford and have won 10 out of the 21 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Brentford’s six victories.

Arsenal have been exceptional in recent weeks and were at their best against Real Madrid in their previous game. With a crucial reverse fixture against the Spaniards set to take place next week, the Gunners may choose to rest some of their big names this week.

Brentford can pull off an upset on their day but have not been at their best this season. Arsenal are the better team on paper and should be able to win this game.

During his time here, he has had the privilege of covering a press meeting during the collaboration between his favorite club Bengaluru FC and Sevilla, where he got a chance to interact with Sevilla president Jose Castro and explore the grassroots development in his city.

Aditya started following the sport after being dazzled by Ronaldinho’s silky feet at the 2006 FIFA World Cup. He is a Barcelona fan and unsurprisingly, his favorite manager and players are Pep Guardiola and Andres Iniesta respectively. He admires the latter for his superhuman talent and his off-pitch demeanor, and his winning goal in Spain’s 2010 World Cup final win over the Netherlands left a lasting impact on Aditya.

The match-preview specialist believes that his ongoing five-year stint at Sportskeeda has given him the ability to identify the distinct line between emotional and fact-based articles, which separates him from other journalists. For him, fact-checking is the most integral part of his writing process and he only relies on authentic platforms for data.
