AFC Bournemouth vs Brentford Predictions

• Brentford have won their last five meetings with Bournemouth
• The Bees are on a four-game winning streak away from home.

Late drama extends Bees’ winning away run

Despite relinquishing a three-goal lead, Brentford’s 93rd-minute goal at Turf Moor on Saturday earned them the points in a seven-goal thriller against Burnley, and they may be able to put another win on the board when they head to the south coast on Tuesday.

That was the Bees’ fourth successive win on their travels and they have scored nine goals in this period, while a January loss to Chelsea is the only time they have suffered defeat away from home in their last eight attempts.

Cherries set to struggle against bogey team Brentford

Bournemouth also boast an impressive unbeaten record, but draws to Sunderland, West Ham and Aston Villa in their last four games suggest their luck may be running out.

The tenth-place Cherries lost the return fixture 4-1 in December to make it five successive defeats against Brentford, and they have not won a meeting with them since the first leg of their Championship play-off semi-final back in 2021.

Backing the underdogs appeals on Tuesday, but a clean sheet may be beyond the side that have conceded five goals in their last three away games. They have scored exactly twice in each of their last three visits to the Vitality Stadium, winning two of those 2-1, so that looks a solid correct score choice.

Anytime goalscorer punters should consider Igor Thiago, who scored his 18th Premier League goal of the season on Saturday. The Brazilian has scored seven of these in his last nine games and he found the net in their League Cup tie at the Vitality Stadium earlier this season.
