Brentford Preview – Can Brentford extend winning streak?
An impressive 3-1 win away from home at Derby County in the Championship on the weekend handed Brentford another vital three points in their quest for automatic promotion to the Premier League and also extended The Bees’ excellent winning streak in the second tier to seven wins on the trot.
Within this excellent sequence of results, Brentford have also kept five clean sheets at the back and the signing of former Leeds United defender, Pontus Jansson, has been pivotal to Brentford’s success this season as the likes of forwards Watkins (24 goals), Benrahma (17 goals) and Mbeumo (15 goals) know that their goals have been less likely to be cancelled out at the other end in this campaign.
An impressive home record which stands at 13-5-3 42/16 includes an unbeaten seven-match sequence which includes five wins against Middlesbrough, Sheffield Wednesday, West Brom, Wigan Athletic and Charlton Athletic, while The Bees have lost just one of their last 14 matches at Griffin Park.
Preston NE Preview – Can Preston stay in hunt for top six?
Following a dismal sequence of seven matches without a win in the Championship, Preston North End finally came back to life with a resounding 3-1 win away from home at Hillsborough against Sheffield Wednesday and the visitors backed that up with a point in a 1-1 draw at home with Nottingham Forest.
Despite winning just one of their last nine matches in the Championship, Alex Neil’s side are still just two points adrift of 6th placed Cardiff City and a possible top six finish is still very much on the cards for Preston, but can they take anything from this tough looking trip down to the nation’s capital when they take on an in-form Brentford outfit at Griffin Park?
In actual fact, being away from home would seem to suit Preston as the visitors have lost just two of their previous 11 matches which includes picking up wins on the road at Barnsley, Wigan Athletic, Stoke City and Sheffield Wednesday, but there’s also perhaps a clue to the outcome of this upcoming encounter too – Preston’s two losses during this sequence were at 2nd placed West Brom and 4th placed Fulham.
