Arsenal head to the Gtech Community Stadium determined to keep pace with league leaders Liverpool. They boast an impressive run against Brentford, winning six of their last eight encounters. The Gunners have also remained unbeaten in their last four away league matches, showing a consistent ability to grind out results on the road.
Brentford’s recent form has been hampered by a growing injury list in defense, with goalkeeper Mark Flekken and veteran centre-back Ben Mee unlikely to feature. This instability at the back contributed to their first home defeat of the season, a 2-0 loss to Nottingham Forest. Despite the Bees’ typically strong home performances, conceding goals has become an unfortunate trend, having failed to keep a clean sheet in five of their last six matches.
Here are three fresh tips to consider:
- Arsenal -1 Handicap @2.60
If the Gunners get an early lead, Brentford’s makeshift back line could struggle to keep the scoreline close. These odds imply a probability that seems slightly undervalued, given Arsenal’s superior form. - Both Teams to Score (No) @2.00
Arsenal have registered four clean sheets in seven games, and with Brentford’s attacking options limited by injuries, a shutout is a realistic outcome. The price is fair value for a team that has tightened up defensively. - Kai Havertz to Score Anytime @3.10
With Bukayo Saka sidelined, Havertz may be handed more attacking freedom. He grabbed a late winner in a previous clash at Brentford, so backing him again could be rewarding.
