Brentford vs Southampton: Premier League Prediction Match Details
Brentford will welcome Southampton for their Matchday three fixture of the Premier League at the Brentford Community Stadium in London on Saturday.
Brentford Preview & Form
Brentford started the 2023–24 Premier League opening fixture with a tough 2-1 victory against Crystal Palace at their home ground. In their second Premier League game, they suffered a 2-0 defeat in their away match against Liverpool at the Anfield Stadium. However, the Bees made it their second win of the season as they bounced back with a 1-0 victory against Colchester in the Carabao Cup second-round game during the midweek.
Thomas Frank will be hoping his side can secure back-to-back home Premier League victories for the first time since October last season. It’s worth noting that Ivan Toney has not made an appearance for Brentford this season, but Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa have been impressive in their attacking play.
Southampton Preview & Form
Southampton suffered back-to-back losses since arriving in the Premier League after promotion from the Championship. In their first Premier League match, the Saints were defeated 1-0 by Newcastle United at St. James’ Park, despite Newcastle being reduced to 10 men early in the first half. In their second game last weekend, they suffered a 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest at home. However, the Saints defeated Cardiff 5-2 in their midweek Carabao Cup game, which should boost their confidence ahead of their next Premier League match.
Notably, the Saints have now only secured one win in their last five matches, including preseason games.
