Brentford to Stay Close Against Brighton
Brighton sit third after nine games while Brentford occupy sixth. Brighton’s recent record shows two wins, two draws and one loss, whereas Brentford have one win, two draws and two losses. At home Brighton average 3.3 goals scored and just 0.3 conceded, yet Brentford still manage 1.5 goals scored on their travels. In the last ten meetings Brighton have four wins, Brentford three and three draws. Five of Brighton’s nine league games and five of Brentford’s have produced three or more goals. Brentford’s ability to score away combined with their solid recent results suggests they can avoid a heavy defeat. The key test will be whether Brentford’s forward line can test Brighton’s tight home defence.
