This has the looks of another interesting contest at LNER Community Stadium in the Premier League. Brentford is in 4th place and host Crystal Palace in 11th spot. Read all about the fixture here!
This is a local derby, usually meaning extra stress and significance.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Brentford form and stats
A Premier League draw at home so far for Brentford. Last season their home statistics were 10 wins, 7 draws and 2 defeats from 19 matches.
Happy days for Brentford in their previous game, a fixture away at Fulham (placed 13th) that ended with a 3-0 victory. Midfield player Jensen got a match rating of 8.81 in that game, the max score being 10. Jensen hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times and had 37 successful passes (of 43 total).
The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 2-2 versus Tottenham Hotspur.The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Brentford as they are travelling to their away game against Newport County in the Carabao Cup. That match is three days after this one.
