Crystal Palace Preview – Can Eagles see off Bees?
Crystal Palace were handed a heavy 3-0 defeat away from home against London rivals, Chelsea, in last weekend’s season-opener at Stamford Bridge but The Eagles return to their Selhurst Park ground for the visit of new-boys, Brentford, this Saturday.
The loss to Chelsea became Crystal Palace’s third league defeat on the trot in the Premier League and indeed Palace have managed to win just two of their last 10 matches overall in the English top flight, but they’ve lost just three of their last seven games at home.
In addition, the fans have returned to the stands and Palace may well benefit from having a full house at Selhurst Park this Saturday as the forward trio of Benteke, Zaha and Ayew look to fire.
Brentford Preview – Can Bees continue to buzz?
A solid and very impressive 2-0 home win over Arsenal saw Brentford return to the top flight with a memorable victory at their new Brentford Community Stadium, but Bees manager, Thomas Frank, is expecting his side to continue their good work at London rivals, Crystal Palace, this Saturday.
Brentford bring an impressive sequence of results into this clash as The Bees have suffered just two defeats out of their last 22 matches in all competitions, while also losing just once in their previous 11 away games as well.
Much will depend on Brentford’s results away from home this season if they’re to maintain their top flight status and this could be a tricky outing.
