Everton vs Brentford Predictions

Brentford score and conceded a fair amount of goals, so it is safe to assume there will be goal-mouth action in this fixture. BTTS is my best bet.

Head to Head

This has historically been very even with Everton winning 11 and Brentford 10 of their 24 encounters. There have only been three draws.

Everton Form

Everton’s slow start to the Premier League campaign leaves them 16th and outside the relegation zone by three points. The Toffees have won just twice and conceded 17 in 11 league matches.

One of Everton’s rare wins came from a 2-0 triumph at Ipswich in October. The Merseyside team are since after a 1-1 draw with Fulham and a 1-0 defeat at Southampton.

Sean Dyche’s side held West Ham to a goalless stalemate before the international break. The Toffees attempted 18 shots and had four on target but couldn’t find the breakthrough.

Everton Injuries

Midfield trio Timothy Iroegbunam, James Garner and Dele Alli are injured and won’t feature.

Forward Youssef Chermiti is also unavailable due to injury.

Brentford Form

Thomas Frank’s Brentford are comfortably in mid-table after notching 16 points from 11 fixtures. The Bees also have the Premier League’s second-best attack and second-worst defence with 22 scored and conceded.

The West Londoners saw some high-scoring results before the break, starting with a 5-3 win over Wolves. A 2-1 loss at Man United, a 4-3 victory against Ipswich and a 2-1 defeat at Fulham followed.

Another goal fest came as Brentford edged Bournemouth to a 3-2 home win. The Bees trailed twice and Yoane Wissa’s double and Mikkel Damsgaard’s goal secured the comeback win.

Brentford Injuries

Defenders Aaron Hickey, Rico Henry and Kristoffer Ajer are sidelined through injury.

Forward Igor Thiago and Gustavo Nunes and midfielder Josh Dasilva are also ruled out here.

Verdict

Everton v Brentford

Everton and Brentford often get amongst the goals and this trend is likely to continue at Goodison Park.
