• Tottenham Hotspur vs Burnley Prediction: FA Cup Match on 05.01.2024

Key Highlights

Brentford will look to do better than the 1-4 home defeat against Wolves when they met in the Premier League on December 27, 2023. The home side’s performance was disappointing, going down 2-0 by the 14th minute and 3-1 at halftime.

Thomas Frank will know that this will be a different setting for the match on Friday, with the FA Cup carrying a different atmosphere and motivation for both sides. Brentford will look to turn their form around with a good performance in the FA Cup as they look to progress in the cup at the expense of Wolves.

With two back-to-back wins in the Premier League, including the 1-4 win at the Gtech Community Stadium, Wolves will look to extend their good run of form with a cup win away to Brentford on Friday.
