Brentford take on the visitors Burnley in the round 9 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, October 21st at Brentford Community Stadium (Brentford).
Brentford entered the Premier League two years ago and immediately demonstrated that they were an interesting and unique project. In the 2022/2023 season, they even spent a considerable amount of time in the race for European competitions. They eventually finished ninth, just two points behind seventh-placed Aston Villa. However, they have been winning very rarely recently, to be precise, only once against Fulham. In their last four matches, they suffered three losses to Newcastle, Everton, and Manchester United (along with an exit from the League Cup after a 0-1 loss to Arsenal) and managed a 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest. This is clearly not the kind of statistical performance that Thomas Frank and his team were expecting.

Burnley are struggling at the new-old level. After their relegation from the Premier League in 2022, Burnley made an unexpected move by appointing Vincent Kompany. The Belgian manager justified the trust by winning the Championship prematurely and easily, while also performing decently in the cup competition. His team has shown promise in cup competitions, but accumulating points in the Premier League has proven challenging. They started with three consecutive losses and only one point from six matches (thanks to a draw with Nottingham Forest). They finally secured a long-awaited victory, 2-1, against the modest newcomers, Luton. However, Chelsea later crushed Burnley 4-1 at Turf Moor.
The two sides played in the Premier League two seasons ago, and they exchanged comfortable home victories. It's time for the Bees to secure a victory, and the conditions are optimal for that. Let's hope that the hosts will make the most of it.
Prediction for the match: Brentford to win.
