Match begins: 14:00 (UTC)
Venue: Brentford Community Stadium (17250 seats)

Stadium regulars at Brentford Community Stadium haven’t celebrated many wins this season, with Brentford withering away in the 14th position. The guesting Everton will hope to protect their higher league place in this fixture.

Insights:
  • Brentford haven’t played a single 0-0 game at home.
  • Everton is in the worst form (0-2-4)

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Brentford form and stats

With 1 Premier League win, 1 draw and 4 defeats from their home games, Brentford are certainly not brimming with confidence. Game days at Brentford Community Stadium have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Brentford as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

Brentford manager T. Frank and his team return home after a 3-3 draw away versus Newcastle United (placed 20th) in the Premier League. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today? Brentford's goalie Álvaro Fernández played a big part in securing a draw after 90 minutes against Newcastle United with a stunning six saves. The forward Ivan Toney outperformed all the other footballers in that game and received a match rating of 7.64 out of 10. Toney scored one goal and hit one key pass.

Before that game, the home loss against Norwich City with the scoreline 1-2.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Brentford have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found five matches with the results: Won four, drawn one and lost zero.

There will be little rest for Brentford after this match as they are travelling to Tottenham Hotspur for a Premier League game in only four days.

The Brentford fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 6 matches. Brentford have conceded 9 from these games.

Everton form and stats

There's been little loot from Everton's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 6 away games in the Premier League. Everton only have 1 win to counter their 3 defeats and 2 draws. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Everton are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Everton have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 204 minutes ago. A. Iwobi was the goal scorer.

Everton play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-3 to Manchester City (placed 2nd). Andros Townsend, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 7.1. Townsend hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 4 of 6 times and had 21 successful passes (of 24 total).

A draw for Everton before that, at their own venue hosting Tottenham Hotspur (0-0).

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found four similar matches played by Everton in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Everton, zero draws and one defeat.

A new game in only three days for Everton, the Premier League home match versus Liverpool. Busy days.

Everton have scored 6 goals on their travels this season, from 6 away games in the league. Everton's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 11 goals from these trips.
