Brentford vs Everton – Preview
The Bees can take solace in the manner of their performance in their 1-0 loss to Newcastle United last weekend. The Bees were competitive throughout the match.
Aside from Callum Wilson’s penalty goal, Thomas Frank’s team actually restricted Newcastle United to one of their lowest expected goals (xG) values from open play in recent memory.
Everton’s victory over Doncaster and their first Premier League point of the season against Sheffield United gave some hope that the Blues could start to build some momentum.
That feel-good factor was cut short at a subdued Goodison Park, as a passive performance allowed Arsenal to claim one of the more comfortable 1-0 wins you’ll see.
Frustration has been building for some time, and it is difficult to shake the feeling that Sean Dyche, Everton’s saviour last season, is only a few losses away from feeling the heat.
The questionable running of the club, both from a financial point of view and with regard to recruitment, has been thrust into the spotlight again this week
The ongoing takeover saga, which may not come to fruition, adds to the noise surrounding the club. We have seen time and time again how this trickles down and is reflected on the field.
Brentford continue to quietly go about their business despite the absence of Ivan Toney. This feels like a golden opportunity having drawn all three of their home matches.
The lack of victories isn’t representative of their performances. Frank’s men have produced considerably bigger chances than their opponents in those three matches.
Brentford outperformed Bournemouth (2.91 to 2.09) and Tottenham (2.22 to 1.27) in terms of expected goals, and created 10 big chances in the two matches combined.
Brentford vs Everton – Suggested bets
- Brentford to win
- Under 2.5 goals
- Brentford win to nil
