LiontipsBrentford vs Crystal Palace. Prediction and Betting Tips for 2022-23 English Premier League (February 18, 2023).
Command Analysis
Brentford have a brilliant streak of ten games without defeat in the Premier League. Only Newcastle can boast a longer unbeaten run in the current tournament. In their last game, the Bees managed to hold Arsenal to a draw (1-1), though Ivan Toney's goal was controvesial.
A win today will allow the hosts to get four consecutive home victories in top flight for the first time since 1937. Thomas Frank's men have eight victories and ten draws, which correspond to 34 points and eighth place in the standings.
Jansson, Onyeka, and Strakosha will sit this game out.
Crystal Palace are six matches without a win in the league. Three draws and three defeats leave them with slim chances of success at Brentford, especially given that the last time the Eagles won at this stadium was in December 1957.
In the 22 rounds of the current league campaign, Patrick Vieira's men have recorded six wins and seven draws, resulting in 25 points and a 12th position in the table. Their attack has been dreadful - palace scored only 20 goals in 22 games. In their last game, Palace drew 1-1 with Brighton.
Andersen, Ward, Zaha, and Ferguson, who is nursing an ankle injury, will all miss this match.
