Brentford 3-1

Reason for tip

Four of Brentford’s last five EFL Cup victories have featured over 2.5 match goals, and they have lost just two of their last six Premier League games. Colchester United, meanwhile, have conceded eight goals in five League Two games this season.

Brentford fell to a last-gasp defeat to Fulham on Saturday, but four points from their opening three Premier League games represents a decent start for the Bees, who will be hopeful of progressing in the EFL Cup on Tuesday.

Thomas Frank’s side have been high scoring this term, netting eight league goals – one of the highest top-flight tallies, and have seen each of their last seven competitive games contain over 2.5 goals, a run stretching back to April.

Colchester United, meanwhile, have made an inconsistent start to their League Two campaign, and only two fourth-tier outfits, Stockport and Hartlepool United (both nine) have conceded more than their eight goals against in five games.

Considering Brentford’s good attacking form, we’re tipping them to win a contest containing over 2.5 goals – four of their last five EFL Cup victories have featured three goals, while a 3-1 away win could be a decent correct score prediction.
