Chelsea Betting Preview

Chelsea sits in 10th place in the standings having picked up 12 points. Chelsea have been disappointing this season and they blew another game in the last game. Chelsea were up 2-0 against Arsenal, but they gave up two goals within seven minutes and that led to them only picking up a point. Chelsea had 43 percent of the possession and five shots on target. One big issue for Chelsea is they are dealing with a ton of injuries. Wesley Fofana, Christopher Nkunku, Carney Chukwuemeka, Ben Chilwell, Trevoh Chalobah, and Romeo Lavia are all dealing with injuries and they aren’t going to be able to go oi this game. 

Brentford Betting Preview

Brentford comes into this game sitting in 14th place in the standings having picked up 10 points. Brentford is coming off a big win in the last game against Burnley. Brentford scored three goals against Burnley and that was enough for the victory. Yoane Wissa opened up the scoring in the 25th minute and they never looked back on the way to the win. Brentford had 49 percent of the possession and 10 shots on target. Rico Henry, Mikkel Damsgaard, Kevin Schade, Josh Dasilva, Shandon Baptiste, Keane Lewis-Potter are all out for this game. Aaron Hickey was suspended for the last game, but he’s back for this game. 

Shane’s Free Pick

Chelsea can’t have a whole lot of confidence after what they did in the last game against Arsenal. In the last game against Brentford they scored three goals and they are going to find success scoring again here. Brentford is going to score at least two goals here. That might not be enough to secure the victory because I’m not sold on the defense, but it will be enough to at least play to a draw. Back Brentford +0.5.
