Brentford vs Wolves Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

Prediction published on 27/12/2023, 05:44  by Steve Ashfield in Premier League Predictions

Brentford hope to end a run of defeats when hosting Wolverhampton Wanderers on December 27. The Bees are 14th in the Premier League, three places below their opponents. A win here will take them above Wolves in the table on goal difference. Recent form has not been good though with their last three league fixtures all ending in defeat. Losses have been inflicted by Brighton and Hove Albion, Sheffield United and Aston Villa. Even more frustrating for Brentford is the fact that they led against both Brighton and Villa. Their last league win was a 3-1 home victory over Luton Town on November 2. Home form has seen them win three, draw three and lose the same number. Two of the last three have been lost but they were against Arsenal and Aston Villa. Both teams have scored in three of their last four league fixtures.

Wolverhampton Wanderers beat Chelsea 2-1 at home on Christmas Eve. That took them to 11th in the table but five points behind ninth spot. They had gone two league games without a win before Sunday's victory. Six league games have been won by Wolves this season but four have come at Molineux. On the road, only two of their nine league fixtures have ended in victory. In recent weeks, Wolves have lost four away league games in a row and conceded ten goals. They did manage to get on the scoresheet themselves though and three of their last four away games have seen both teams score. We go for that statistic to come up again on Wednesday evening.
