Leeds United Team News
Leeds United beat Cardiff City during the week and advanced to the 4th Round of the FA Cup. That was their first win after seven games in all competitions.
That win in the FA Cup is the only positive thing in the last couple of weeks for Leeds. They are struggling so much in the Premier League and they are five games without a win in the league and in the last 15 games they have only two wins!
Since the end of August, Leeds is in the worst form in the league with only 10 points from a possible 45!
They are still above the relegation zone but only with two points more than all three teams in the relegation zone. The next few weeks will be crucial for Leeds and Jesse Marsch.
In the next five games, they will play against Brentford, Nottingham Forest, Everton, and Southampton and if they don’t win some points here Marsch will be sacked and Leeds will be in huge trouble.
With 33 goals conceded, Leeds has the third-worst defence in the league and they kept only three clean sheets. They failed to score in only two home games.
Brentford Team News
This is another great season for Brentford, so far. They are in strong 9th place in the table with 29 points and seven wins after 19 games. They are much closer to European places than the relegation zone.
Thomas Frank’s men are in good form recently. Brentford has three consecutive wins and they are without a defeat in the last seven games, since October. A stat for respect is that Brentford scored at least two goals in the last six games.
Only five teams are in better form than Brentford at this moment and only six teams scored more goals than them.
One of the problems of this team are results against the teams from the bottom half of the table. Brentford has more wins against the sides from the top 10 than against the teams from 11th to 20th place.
In 10 games against the teams from the second half of the table, they have only three wins (only one away from home).

Leeds United vs Brentford Prediction
Their first game this season was a sensational one. It was finished with Brentford’s 5-2 win. In the last two seasons in the Premier League, since both clubs were promoted from the Championship, they have played three great games which ended with 14 goals.
Leeds is under bigger pressure than Brentford and if they don’t start to win some points they will be in big trouble.
We think that this game will be an open one with goals on both sides and fantastic 90 minutes of football in Yorkshire.
