  • Both teams have scored in three of Wolves’ last five games

  • Both teams have scored in five of the last seven meetings between these two

  • Recommended bet: Both teams to score

Two wins on the bounce has given Wolves fans the faintest of hope of staying in the Premier League this season, although not finishing bottom is a more realistic goal after their disastrous start to the campaign.

The Old Gold have been in fine form at home but their away record all season has been woeful and they need to start picking up wins on the road if they are to avoid finishing bottom.

They face a Brentford side who were dealt a big blow with a penalty shootout loss to West Ham in the FA Cup last time out but who have largely impressed this season, lying seventh in the standings.

Prediction

Wolves have been much-improved recently, winning their last two Premier League matches to give themselves the faintest hopes of staying up.

Putting three wins in a row on the board would also be a largely symbolic victory for a side who have struggled all season.

Nevertheless they can play their part in this clash against Brentford, who may find it tough to bounce back after their penalty shootout defeat to West Ham in the FA Cup.

That game finished 2-2 in normal time and this could be another entertaining affair, with both teams fancied to play their part.
