Brentford Preview – Easy win for Frank’s Bees?

In their first ever Premier League campaign, Brentford have been very competitive up until now. Thomas Frank’s men have started with two wins, two draws and one defeat from their opening five top-flight fixtures.

After beating Arsenal on the opening weekend, Brentford drew with Crystal Palace and Aston Villa before narrowly losing at home to Brighton & Hove Albion. The Bees returned to winning ways last weekend, with goals from Ivan Toney and Bryan Mbeumo giving the Londoners an impressive 2-0 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux.

Our betting prediction:
Brentford to be winning at half time & full time
4/6

(odds taken 1420 GMT, Monday 20 September)

 
In the previous round of the cup, Brentford eased past Forest Green Rovers at the Brentford Community Stadium – goals from Yoane Wissa, Mbeumo and Marcus Forss did the damage in that one. Brentford will be looking for something similar on Tuesday night.

Oldham Athletic Preview – Heavy cup defeat for the EFL’s bottom side?

Keith Curle’s Oldham Athletic have had a pretty miserable time in league Two so far this season. After eight games played, the Latics are bottom of the Football League, taking just four points from a possible 24. Curle’s side have lost six, won one and drawn one.

Oldham did manage to avoid defeat last weekend, though, drawing 0-0 at home with Hartlepool United. Also, they have beaten Tranmere Rovers and Accrington Stanley to reach the third round of the EFL Cup. Both wins came via a penalty shootout.

Brentford vs Oldham Athletic Betting Advice

This will be the first time that these two sides have met since the 2013-14 League One campaign. Brentford picked up four points from the two meetings, winning 1-0 at home and drawing 0-0 on the road.

Key Facts – Brentford vs Oldham Athletic Betting Tip

  • Brentford have won five and drawn two of their last six against Oldham
  • The Bees have suffered just one Premier League defeat since promotion
  • The Latics are rock bottom of the Football League with just four points to their name

 

Brentford will still be buzzing from last weekend’s excellent Premier League win at Molineux, and their superiority should see them to an easy win over the League Two strugglers on Tuesday. In truth, this could be a walk in the park for Frank’s troops, and we like the look of 11/8 for the hosts to win both halves.

Brentford have kept three clean sheets in their opening five league matches. Also, Oldham have failed to score in their last six against the Bees. You can get 20/21 for the home side to win to nil in midweek.
