Preston North End form and stats

Perfect Championship season at home so far for Preston North End, as mentioned below. 3 wins from 3 appearances.

Preston North End drew their last game, 1-1 away at Nottingham Forest (placed 10th). In the match before that, Preston North End hosted Hull City and drew the Carabao Cup game 2-2.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams.

Brentford form and stats

Brentford are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Championship, having played 3 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 2 losses). The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Brentford have lost on their last two travels.

The supporters enjoyed Brentford's previous game versus Derby County (placed 19th), a Championship 3-0 win played at home. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Charlton Athletic wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Brentford playing away and similar expectations, we found eleven relevant matches. Results were 4 Brentford wins, 4 draws and 3 defeats.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Brentford's away games in the league this season with only 1 goal from 3 matches. It's not easy to score on Brentford as they have only conceded 2 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings between the teams: Preston North End won 2, Brentford won 7 and 1 draw. 8 games with over 2,5 goals, 2 matches with two goals or less.
