The visiting Brentford side should be favourites in this visit to Stoke City, as the away team holds a 31 point advantage from their 44 league games this season.

It's no vacation for neither Stoke City nor Brentford as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Relegation threatens Stoke who should definitely be looking for some points here. Brentford are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.
