The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Brentford are in the 9th position while the guests worry at 21st.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Brentford form and stats
Brentford have collected 12 points from their Championship home games so far after 3-3-2. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Griffin Park.
The Brentford supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Luton Town in Championship and win 5-0. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Blackburn Rovers (0-1).
As mentioned above, Brentford "killed" Luton Town in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency. Brentford decided the match against Luton Town in the first half, and held firmly on to their lead (5-0) without using too much effort. The team showed great control while saving some energy.
The Brentford fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 8 matches. Brentford are not conceding a lot of goals here at Griffin Park in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 6 from 8 matches.
Luton Town form and stats
There's been little loot from Luton Town's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 9 away games in the Championship. Luton Town only have 2 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 0 draws. Bitter travels for Luton Town as they have lost five games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Blackburn Rovers match.
Two away games in a row for Luton Town, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-5 versus Brentford in the Championship. That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus Charlton Athletic.
Luton Town lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-5 beating and focus on this one. Luton Town did not look prepared in the first half against Brentford and lost the game during the first 45 minutes. They need to evaluate their pre-match routine before this one.
Luton Town are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 11 away goals from 9 games (in the league). Luton Town have conceded 18 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last six matches): Brentford 2 wins, 2 draws and Luton Town 2 victories. As for goals, 2 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 4 games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
