Brentford vs Southampton Preview
Brentford
Thomas Frank’s Brentford will be looking for a response in the Premier League this weekend when they bid to bounce back from their recent loss at Liverpool. There was no shame in losing against the Reds at Anfield, but the Bees struggled in the middle of the park to keep the ball away from a possession-based Liverpool on Merseyside.
Being back in front of their own fans this weekend will give the Bees confidence, as they were impressive winners on matchday one against Crystal Palace. However, it remains to be seen which players will be available to Frank, as Ivan Toney and Yoanne Wissa are linked with moves away before the transfer deadline.
Southampton
It has been a stern reminder of the cut-throat world of Premier League action for Southampton, as they are yet to pick up a point since their promotion back to the top-flight. The Saints suffered a second successive defeat to start the new season on Saturday after falling to a 1-0 loss at home against Nottingham Forest.
Their clear limitations in the final third will be a worry ahead of making a Brentford vs Southampton prediction this weekend, as Russell Martin’s side mustered just a single shot on target in their recent loss against Forest at St Mary’s.

Brentford have avoided defeat in their last three Premier League matches against the Saints, claiming victories on all occasions.
