Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Brentford vs Arsenal

Brentford

Brentford had a great last season in the Championship and earned the right to play in the English Premier League in the new campaign. Now the Bees will play at a completely different level for themselves and it will be interesting to see this modest British team in the matches of the English championship.

The main task of Brentford for the upcoming season will not be to fly back to the Championship and for this the team needs to consistently score points, especially in matches at its stadium. The match against Arsenal will be a good starting test for Brentford in the Premier League.

Arsenal

The London Gunners failed the last draw of the English championship and finished outside the European Cup zone. In the new season, Arsenal will strive to rehabilitate themselves for last year's failures in front of their fans and clearly intends to perform much better and stronger.

Arsenal did not spend the summer so actively in the transfer market this summer, but before the window closes, they can still strengthen their squad with several players. The Gunners managed to preserve the backbone of the team, and head coach Mikel Arteta probably came up with his own special plan to return the Londoners to the top of the standings.

The new draw of the English championship will be opened by a confrontation in which Brentford will play against Arsenal at their stadium. The Gunners are considered the favorites of this meeting, but the bookmakers leave quite good chances for the home team to get a good result. Brentford is a typical British team that is ready to give a decent fight to an opponent of any level on its own field, which means that it will be at least difficult for Arsenal in such a duel. A promising choice is a bet on "both teams will score" for 1.74.
