Two sides that will be looking to bounce back to winning ways in the Premier League will lock horns on Wednesday evening. Brentford come into this round just above the relegation places in the standings, while Brighton will require maximum points to keep alive their hopes of a European finish this term.
It has been a challenging campaign for Brentford this term, but they appear to be within touching distance of achieving their target for the season. The Bees will be hoping to maintain their top flight status in England, and their chances have been boosted after picking up a draw against Man United in their previous fixture to open up a five-point gap over the bottom three places.
Brighton will still be looking to finish in a European position this term, but they could be in a race against time to pick up the required number of points. The Seagulls have picked up victories in two of their last five matches, but they come into this round after suffering defeats in two of their last three in the competition. Their most recent defeat was suffered on the road against Liverpool last Sunday.
Brentford have endured a poor run in midweek fixtures in the Premier League, losing ten of their last 14. That includes defeats in all four so far this season. In home matches, they have taken just one point from a possible 12 in midweek fixtures in the league.
Brighton have a better record in matches played on a Wednesday, winning half of their four fixtures since the start of last season. That includes a 2-1 success against Brentford in the reverse clash this season. That is a much better record after winning just once in their first 17 midweek matches in the Premier League.
Brighton have recorded three victories from 17 away matches against Brentford. All three of those wins have come by a 1-0 scoreline, with their latest success coming in September 2021. Meanwhile, Brentford have recorded just one win in five Premier League matches against the Seagulls.
These two teams have been very difficult to predict throughout the 2023-24 season, and that could make it testing to separate them this week. However, Brighton’s record against the Bees is hard to ignore, meaning that the narrow preference is for an away victory on Wednesday.
