Brentford face their opponents, equal on points, it will likely be a thrilling encounter

Brentford will be buoyant, following a 3-0 away win against Manchester United in their last fixture.

Also, Thomas Frank knows that a run of 11 losses in 19 games for his Brentford side, is going to be a tough run of form to change. However that is exactly what he must try to deliver. They currently stand thirteenth in the League, with 40 points for a total of 11 wins, 17 losses and 7 draws having won 11 fixtures, drawn seven games, and lost 17 fixtures.

When Brentford host Soton, they will do so on the back of six wins, three darts, and eight defeats on their own ground.

Brentford will have 43 points so far this season, should they secure a win.

Brentford’s ever growing list of players missing due to injury or illness to be a concern for Thomas Frank, ahead of this Saturday’s fixture against their opponents.

Southampton face his opponents with equal points, with both keen to make progress

Soton have dropped five points in their last two encounters – a 1-2 defeat at Crystal Palace and 2-2 draw at Brighton & Hove Albion.

Also, Soton need to find a way to generate wins on a consistent basis, as they’ve recorded six losses in their last nine games. Now they have 9 matches won, 13 games lost and 13 duels drawn; that’s why they currently sit in fifteenth place, with a total of 40 points having won nine fixtures, drawn 13 games, and lost 13 games.

With a poor record on the road, which amounts to three victories, six darts, and eight losses, it is hard to predict a positive outcome for Soton as they travel once more.

Victory for Southampton would take their points tally to 43 so far this season.

Going into Saturday’s game, Ralph Hasenhuttl without one of his players, due to illness or injury.
