Brentford Football Club vs Arsenal Football Club: Match Prediction
In this upcoming London derby, we would side with the visitors. Arsenal Football Club quickly drew conclusions from their defeat to Manchester United and then thrashed the next two opponents by an aggregate score of 7:0. The team have no intention of easing off and are also aiming to preserve their six-point cushion over their nearest challenger. Even away from home, Arsenal Football Club have strong numbers, winning six of their last 10 Premier League matches (with three draws) and losing only to Aston Villa.
Brentford Football Club are strong at their own ground, but the most recent defeat to Nottingham Forest (0:2) showed they are not quite as flawless as they might seem. In this calendar year, the team have also dropped points at home against Tottenham Hotspur, failing to score against their fellow Londoners (0:0). Given that Arsenal Football Club have the best defence in the league, it will be difficult for Brentford Football Club to break down the visitors in this derby. In addition, across the last eight head-to-head meetings in the Premier League, Arsenal Football Club have won six times, with the other two ending level.
Prediction: Arsenal Football Club to win
