Newcastle United, Recent FormThe last league instalment for Newcastle United produced a stunning 4-1 away win over Fulham. They achieved 68% possession in that match and had 19 strikes at goal, with 10 hitting the target, up against Fulham's tally of 4 efforts at goal, 1 of which were on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 10 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 8, and leading to valuable points being dropped. When it comes to attacking performances, they can consider themselves in a good and consistent form, having chalked up goals in 5 of their last 6 matches. Unable to deliver a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, it's fair to say they have their troubles at the back.
There will be mixed feelings from The Magpies, while they've been undefeated in their last 5 league games at home, they've drawn the last 3 of these games in a row.
Callum Wilson will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 5 goals in the last 6 league games for Newcastle United.
Brentford, Recent FormIt was just a point apiece for Brentford and Bournemouth in their last match, which ended in a 0-0 draw. During that encounter they recorded 58% of the possession and had 13 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents managed to hit 1 of their 7 shots on goal.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 10 and seen valuable points lost. Chalking up goals on the road is something their fans have become accustomed to, with them hitting the net in 4 of their last 6 matches. They are in some turmoil defensively at the moment and have been unable to record a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've drawn their last 2 league games away from home, but their search for a league win on the road extends even further having gone 4 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
Goalscorer Ivan Toney will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 4 goals in his last 6 league matches for Brentford.
The last time these sides were pitched against each other in the league, it ended in a 0-2 win for Newcastle United.
Newcastle will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 6 encounters with The Bees. We have seen plenty of goals from The Magpies when they play at home against Brentford. In their last 3 league matches they have scored a total of 11 goals, which is an average of 3.67 goals per game.
Newcastle have certainly shown themselves to be resilient opponents against Brentford in the league, having gone unbeaten against them in their last 6 meetings.
Newcastle manager Eddie Howe has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Karl Darlow (Ankle), Alexander Isak (Muscle), Emil Krafth (Ligament), Matt Ritchie (Calf), Allan Saint-Maximin (Hamstring), Jonjo Shelvey (Hamstring) and Chris Wood (Rib) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Brentford manager Thomas Frank has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Keane Lewis-Potter (Knock), Christian Nørgaard (Achilles tendon) and Ethan Pinnock (Knee) are all currently out of contention for this game.
