Brentford, Recent FormBrentford boss Thomas Frank will need to instil positive feelings within his team after they endured a 5-1 away mauling from Newcastle United. During that encounter they recorded 46% of the possession and had 6 attempts on goal with 3 on target, while their opponents managed to hit 6 of their 16 shots on goal.
Frank will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 12 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 8 goals they managed at the other end. They are showing great consistency at Gtech Community Stadium in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 home games. 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.
They've had a less than ideal run of form recently, winning just 1 of their last 6 games.
Ivan Toney will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for Brentford.
Brighton & Hove Albion, Recent FormThe Brighton & Hove Albion squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 home defeat against Tottenham Hotspur, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. In that game they had 59% possession and managed 14 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Tottenham Hotspur who had 8 attempts and 3 on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 12 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 8 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. Having found the net in 5 of their last 6 matches, they will be pleased that their forward line have found some good and consistent form of late.
They have had a good run of form away from home recently, unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 games on the road and picking up 3 wins along the way.
Leandro Trossard has scored 5 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Brentford.
