Brentford vs Chelsea prediction, H2H and probable lineups — April 6, 2025
In the 31st round of the English Premier League, a clash between Brentford and Chelsea will take place. The match will be held in London on Sunday, April 6. The game is scheduled to kick off at 15:00 Central European Time. I suggest betting on the game's productivity.
Match preview
Thomas Frank's team has been performing at a high level for several seasons, sitting in the middle of the Premier League table. While they struggle to compete for European competitions, they certainly know how to challenge the big clubs.
Brentford is known for scoring frequently, but their defense is far from perfect. Wissa and Mbeumo have scored more than half of all the goals, so they should be watched closely.
Chelsea has not looked as formidable in recent matches as they did at the end of last year. Maresca's charges often drop points, considering the club's goal to return to the Champions League.
Midweek, the "Blues" defeated Tottenham at home and returned to the top four. Newcastle has a game in hand and could push Chelsea down to fifth with a win. The schedule is daunting, with the season ending in battles against the "Magpies", Liverpool, Man United, and Nottingham.
Match facts
- Brentford has not won at home in eight consecutive matches.
- Chelsea's away form is dismal, having not won in the Premier League since December of last year.
- Brentford averages 0.6 goals per game at home, while Chelsea averages 0.8 goals per game away.
Probable lineups
- Brentford: Flekken, Lewis-Potter, Collins, Pinnock, van den Berg, Janelt, Nørgaard, Damsgaard, Schade, Mbeumo, Wissa.
- Chelsea: Sanchez, Cucurella, Gusto, Colwill, Adarabioyo, Caicedo, Fernandez, Palmer, Neto, Sancho, Jackson.
H2H
Brentford has never defeated Chelsea at home.
Prediction
Chelsea's key players have returned from injury, which should boost the team's confidence and attacking sharpness. I expect a high-scoring match and would bet on both teams finding the net.
