Jansson was the last player to score a league goal for Brentford and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Brentford haven't scored in 180 minutes.

The followers are hoping that Brentford will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-3 away loss in the game against Manchester United (placed 6th). Eriksen (midfield was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.75/10. Eriksen hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 45 successful passes (of 52 total).

In the match before that, Brentford hosted Tottenham Hotspur and drew the game 0-0.

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 seven matches with the results: Won five, drawn zero and lost two.

Southampton form and stats

Southampton have only collected 15 points from their away games in the Premier League, after 3-6-8 (17 played).

Late heartbreak for Southampton in the Crystal Palace match, as the deciding 1-2 goal came deep into overtime. Romeu got a match rating of 8.13 in that game, top player of the team. Romeu scored one goal and hit four key passes.
