Chelsea Betting Preview
Chelsea comes into this game sitting in 11th place in the standings having picked up 39 points. Last Tuesday, Chelsea faced off against Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League, and they were defeated 2-0. Chelsea has lost four games in a row and during that stretch of games they have scored only one goal. Kalidou Koulibaly and Armando Broja are both dealing with injuries and they aren’t going to be able to go in this game. Ben Chilwell and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang both missed the last game, but it’s expected that they are both going to be able to go in this game.
Brentford Betting Preview
On the other side of this matchup is Brentford who sits in 10th place in the standings having picked up 44 points. In the last game against Aston Villa, Brentford played to a 1-1 draw. Ivan Toney had a strong game and he scored in the 65th minute. Brentford had 42 percent of the possesion and five shots on target. Pontus Jansson, Kristoffer Ajer, and Keane Lewis-Potter are all dealing with injuries and they aren’t going to be able to go in this game. Christian Norgaard is also dealing with an injury and it’s not expected that he’s going to be able to go in this game. In this game, Brentford is going to need the defense to step up here.
Shane’s Free Pick
This game is going to be lower scoring here. Chelsea’s offense has been awful heading into this game and they are going to really struggle to score again in this game. Brentford is going to have issues getting any type of offense going against the Chelsea defense and that will be the difference here. Back the under to cash here.
