Saturday | 14:00 UTC | Gtech Community Stadium | Premier League

Both Brentford and Aston Villa are still chasing their first wins of the new Premier League season, and they meet at the Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday. The Bees endured a rough start under Keith Andrews, while Unai Emery’s side showed resilience to take a point against Newcastle despite being reduced to ten men.

Brentford looked shaky defensively in their 3-1 loss to Nottingham Forest, giving new boss Andrews a baptism of fire. Things don’t get easier with Villa arriving in West London, especially given the Bees’ winless record in this fixture.

Villa, meanwhile, held firm in a 0-0 draw against Newcastle, grinding out a result despite losing Ezri Konsa to a red card. With Emiliano Martinez returning in goal and Ollie Watkins leading the line, they’ll expect to find their first win of the campaign.

Brentford – 3.35
Draw – 3.50
Aston Villa – 2.06

Villa are priced as favourites to pick up three points, and given Brentford’s defensive struggles last weekend, backing the visitors to score twice looks strong value.

Ollie Watkins has an excellent record in this fixture, netting in both games against Brentford last season. A goal or assist looks a solid angle once again.

For Brentford, Igor Thiago is their main threat after scoring on his debut, but Villa’s defence should be more disciplined this weekend.

Another intriguing angle lies in Brentford centre-half Nathan Collins, who has a habit of conceding fouls. At 2.61 for 2+ tackles, it’s worth a look.
