Insights:
  • Leicester City haven’t played a single 0-0 game.
  • Brentford have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

There have been limited time to rest for the home team, as they were involved in a Europa Conference League game only three days back. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Rennes.
