Recent form

Arsenal

Arsenal's recent form has been impressive, with five wins in their last six games, including a notable 3-1 victory over Liverpool. The Gunners have been scoring goals at an incredible rate, netting 24 times in their previous six matches, averaging four goals per game. Their defensive record has also been solid, conceding just three goals in the same period, keeping three clean sheets. Arsenal's goal difference of 21 over the last six games is a testament to their dominance. The team has been involved in high-scoring affairs, with 80% of their matches featuring over 2.5 goals. However, their only defeat came in the Champions League against FC Porto, a 1-0 loss that may raise concerns about their European form.

Brentford

Brentford's recent form has been concerning, with the team currently sitting in 15th position in the league table, having accumulated 26 points from 27 games. In their last six matches, Brentford has suffered a run of four consecutive defeats, which was only broken by a draw in their most recent game against Chelsea. During this period, Brentford has struggled defensively, conceding 14 goals at an average of 2.33 per game, while only managing to score 8 goals themselves. Notably, there have been several high-scoring encounters, with 70% of their last six games featuring over 2.5 goals. The 4-2 loss against West Ham and the 4-1 defeat to Liverpool stand out as particularly disappointing results for Brentford.
