Brentford Preview – Can Brentford take step closer to promotion?
Automatic promotion is still on the cards for Saturday’s hosts, Brentford, especially as they gained a fourth league win on the trot in the Championship on Tuesday night with a convincing 3-0 win away from home at Reading and The Bees are now just five points behind 2nd placed West Brom.
An impressive four-match winning streak has come at just about the right time for the London club having collected previous wins against Sheffield Wednesday, promotion rivals, Fulham, and most impressive of all, a 1-0 home win against their automatic promotion rivals, West Brom, at Griffin Park.
In addition, Brentford have kept clean sheets in each of these four wins while overall results have seen Brentford suffer just one defeat out of their last 11 matches. The hosts also bring a five-match unbeaten run at Griffin Park into this clash within an impressive overall home record that stands at 11-5-3 37/15.
Wigan Athletic Preview – Can Wigan continue climb up table?
Paul Cook’s Wigan Athletic have again produced an impressive great escape in the Championship as The Latics currently enjoy the relative safety of 14th place on the Championship ladder following an excellent nine-match unbeaten run which has lifted them away from the relegation zone.
Six wins within this nine-match sequence has helped lift the Lancashire club seven points away from the relegation zone and having won their last three matches on the trot with victories over Huddersfield Town, Blackburn Rovers and Stoke City, the visitors won’y be too fazed by this trip down to the nation’s capital to face a similarly in-form Brentford outfit.
Wigan have also won four of their last five matches on the road with wins at Leeds United, Reading, West Brom and Huddersfield Town but despite these recent victories, they’ll still face a tough test at Griffin Park this Saturday.
Nevertheless, The Latics have claimed some impressive scalps in recent times and will give Brentford a run for their money here.
