In yet another London derby, Brentford will be looking to avenge their 4-2 setback to West Ham United by defeating Chelsea. A three-game losing streak in the Premier League has jeopardized the Bees’ premier division position.
Meanwhile, the Blues held Man City to a 1-1 draw at Etihad Stadium in their previous league encounter, so they should capitalize on the present scenario in Brentford’s locker room.

Betting tips: Brentford x Chelsea
Check out our predictions of the day for Brentford vs. Chelsea
Prediction 1: Brentford x Chelsea / Chelsea to win
Though they’ve had decent spells this season, both teams are in better shape coming into this match. With many essential players back in the lineup, Chelsea should be able to win the game. On the other hand, the Bees have a fantastic record while playing Chelsea as of late.
Despite Chelsea’s dismal season, Brentford will be confident in their ability to shock them again. Chelsea, however, is the superior team on paper and ought to achieve victory.
Prediction 2: Brentford x Chelsea / Both teams to score
There has been an offensive mentality from both Chelsea and Brentford recently. There are sufficient indicators to suggest that Saturday’s matchup will break the recent pattern of low scoring in their head-to-head matchups. Two of Brentford’s past three league matches saw four goals allowed.
Across all competitions, both sides scored in ten of their last twelve games. Chelsea has experienced a similar pattern across all competitions in five of their previous six matches. Assuming both teams score, you may place a bet.
Prediction 3: Brentford x Chelsea / Over 3.5 goals
Brentford might use this match against a Chelsea team that will be mentally and physically exhausted after two rigid cup matches to get back on track.
The best option is in the goals market, focusing on supporting over 3.5 goals in the encounter since there is little confidence to keep the Bees to win the match.
Due in large part to the anticipated absence of English defender Mee, Brentford’s defensive woes will continue, as the club has let in three goals or more in seven of their last eleven matches.
A lack of defensive consistency has also plagued Chelsea; in their previous ten league away games, they have allowed more than three and a half goals in six matches.
