Match Preview
Brentford has firmly held its place in the middle of the table after 20 rounds, currently sitting in 11th place with 27 points. However, it is worth noting that their results could have been better if not for their weak performances away from home. The Londoners have only accumulated two points from nine away matches. Their poor away form has been a major setback, although thanks to strong results at home, they can still aim for a top-10 finish.
Unfortunately, Brentford is currently in a downturn. In their last match, the team convincingly defeated Southampton 5-0 away. However, Southampton is one of the clear relegation candidates, almost already relegated to the Championship. Before that, in their previous five matches, including a cup tie against Newcastle, Brentford failed to secure a single victory, suffering four defeats and one draw.
Plymouth, at the start of the season, was one of the main relegation contenders, and it is still hard to say that their situation has significantly improved. Currently, the team sits at the bottom of the table with 20 points, but they are only three points behind the 21st-place team, which offers some hope for survival despite their difficult situation.
After the dismissal of Wayne Rooney and the appointment of Kevin Nancekevill, the team ended a two-match losing streak by drawing 2-2 at home against Bristol City. In the next round, Plymouth managed to secure a point in a goalless draw against Stoke City away. However, despite this, their winless streak has now extended to 11 matches.
Expected Line-ups
- Brentford: Flecken, van den Berg, Collins, Pinnock, Roerslev Rasmussen, Nørgaard, Jensen, Damsgaard, Lewis-Potter, Mbeumo, Wissa
- Plymouth: Grimshaw, Mumba, Scutt, Palson, Edwards, Forshaw, Randall, Issaka, Al-Hadj, Whittaker, Obafemi
