Brentford to Win

Reasoning

Reason for tip

Brentford are still in the hunt for European qualification and they can strengthen their claims with a victory over West London rivals, Fulham. The Bees have drawn their last five matches in all competitions but late goals have stopped them landing all three points in their last two home outings against Everton and Wolves. Fulham have struggled on the road this term and have little left to play for in 12th spot.

Brentford 2-0

Reasoning

Reason for tip

Brentford have scored exactly two goals in three of their last four matches, so a 2-0 home win looks a solid option for correct-score purposes. Fulham were beaten 2-0 away to Liverpool last week and they have lost nine of their 16 away league matches this season.

Igor Thiago To Score Anytime

Reasoning

Reason for tip

Igor Thiago bagged a brace in the 2-2 draw with Everton last week and the Brentford hotshot should be backed to continue his scoring streak. Thiago has scored 25 goals in 36 matches in all competitions this season and is fighting it with Erling Haaland for the Premier League golden boot. Taking Brentford’s penalties also aids the Thiago cause in this bet.

Igor Thiago has scored 21 goals in the Premier League this season.

Bees buzzing to be in the chase for Europe

Brentford were expected by many to struggle this term following the exit of former boss Thomas Frank but they have continued where he left off and are firmly in the race for European qualification with just six games remaining.

The Bees start this round of fixtures in seventh spot, just a point off Chelsea in sixth and five points adrift of fifth-placed Liverpool.

Any slip-ups could allow Brentford their best-ever top-flight finish and we predict another vital three points on Saturday lunchtime when they host travel-weary Fulham.

The Cottagers don’t have far to go for this fixture but their away form is miserable and only struggling trio Leeds, Burnley and Wolves have picked up fewer points on the road this term, than Marco Silva’s men have.

Last week’s 2-0 loss at Liverpool came despite many thinking the Craven Cottage side could cause a shock, and that result followed a familiar theme.

Brentford brace looks highly likely

Brentford have scored exactly two goals in three of their last four matches, so a 2-0 home win looks a solid option for correct-score purposes.

Keith Andrew’s side are averaging just under two goals per game on home soil this season and that tally looks well within reach against Fulham.

The Bees put two past defensively-sound Everton last Saturday and the Cottagers should be easier to break down as they have managed just one clean sheet in their last 17 outings.

Thiago’s touch remains red-hot

Igor Thiago is one goal shy of Premier League leading scorer Erling Haaland and the Brazilian is fancied to add to his 21-goal tally with another strike against Fulham.

Thiago bagged a brace in last week’s 2-2 draw with Everton and he has scored five goals in his last four outings for the west Londoners.

The 24-year-old is likely to be on penalty duty for Brentford, so that will help the cause when backing him to get on the scoresheet.
