Crystal Palace - Brentford betting tips and odds

Crystal Palace might be heading into this game as firm favourites to get a win but they will have their work cut out for them as Brentford are known to be highly unpredictable and capable of pulling a surprise when it is least expected.

The away team’s chances of winning this Tuesday are dubious at best. They are the clear underdogs in a matchup with Crystal Palace, and the fact that they’re the visiting team isn’t making things any easier.

Crystal Palace were up against a vastly superior opponent in the last round - Manchester City – which means the 4:2 result was rather predictable. Considering the home-field disadvantage and 17.00 betting odds that most bookies gave them, the lead The Eagles had in the first half was quite surprising.

Brentford narrowly avoided a home defeat in the previous round of Premier League. Playing against Everton, they were behind at half-time but managed to catch up. The 1:1 result is no cause for celebration, though, given the favourable matchup and home-field advantage.

Crystal Palace’s recent performances have raised some questions about their defence. They conceded 6 goals throughout their latest three Premier League matches and betting on Over 4.5 seems like a reasonable option.

Brentford netted 7 goals in their last three showdowns, which means this match might be a great chance to look at Over Goals markets. With some luck, a confirmed Over 4.5 seems quite plausible.

The Eagles’s performance in the Premier League so far has been far from ideal. Their current 13th spot is nothing to write home about, though it’s still too early in the season to make any hard judgments. Moving upward will be no easy task, however, and European football seems like a dream too big at the moment.

Though they’re in the upper part of the Premier League table, Brentford are heading into dire straits on this Tuesday. Moreover, we’re only at round 5 of this season’s competition. On the bright side, this also means that they have more than enough time to earn the 2 points needed for a Europa qualification, even if they lose this match.

In the previous season of the Premier League, these two teams ended up with a tied match. Another draw would work much better for Brentford than The Eagles – after all, they’re the underdogs in this matchup.

Brentford will have an even more difficult time of this match than what was expected. They will be missing at least a few players due to injury - Ethan Pinnock, Kristoffer Ajer, Sergi Canos will all be unable to perform.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 2.08 if you use the Betway sportsbook.
