Crystal Palace - Brentford predictions

With 2.33 on home win, the ground is level and three points are everyone’s to take. However, we’d still recommend backing Crystal Palace who should end up victorious in the end against Brentford.

From the present perspective, the situation is evident. Considering the strength of Crystal Palace and the fact that The Bees are given 3.45 odds to win, it is clear that anything but a home win would be a remarkable surprise.

Though The Eagles are here after an away defeat in the previous round against Chelsea , that performance does not offer an accurate assessment of their form. They played as visitors against an overwhelmingly stronger opponent, so perhaps the draw in the first half and 2:1 loss aren’t too bad.

Premier League betting odds expected Brentford’s previous away game to be a relatively close call, but it ended up being completely one-sided. They quickly fell behind and the gap between them and their opponents only widened as time went on. The final outcome was a harsh 1:4 home defeat.

The away team’s defensive record is slipping. They’ve conceded more than 5 times in their previous 3 Premier League engagements. This, at least, points to this match as a decent choice for something like an Over 5 Goals bet.

Crystal Palace are placed 15th in the standings at the moment, with 3 points separating them from the relegation zone. It’s difficult to make any strong statements at the moment since we’re not even past the mid-season yet.

The away team will find it difficult to secure any points here, but they would be a great way to climb up from their current table position, which is at 14th. The season is close to its midpoint, and putting some more distance between them and the relegation zone would be more than welcome.

This matchup has been consistently ending in a draw throughout the current season. The Eagles played against The Bees on several occasions in multiple different competitions, and never managed to gain the upper hand despite being considered favourites.

Though the odds are against the visitors, at least they’ll be in a position to put up as much of a fight as possible. All of their lineup is accounted for in this match, with no issues from suspensions or injuries.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 2.22 odds offered at Betfair.
