Recent Wolves and Brentford Match Analysis

Wolves last 5 matches: Wolves 0-2 Crystal Palace (H) Premier League Aston Villa 1-0 Wolves (A) Premier League Wolves 0-1 Nottingham Forest (H) Premier League Wolves 1-4 Manchester United (H) Premier League Arsenal 2-1 Wolves (A) Premier League

As it is well known Wolves have had the worst form in the league having not seen a point for over 2 months and having seen 9 straight league losses. There isn’t really any positives that can be taken as almost everything has been an issue they have scored 2 goals in the last 5 while seeing 12 goals against them. They struggle at both ends of the pitch and haven’t really seen any type of positive for some time. The main positive they can take as of recent is that it took them to score 2 own goals for the league leaders to beat them however, that won’t do much to improve moral.

Brentford last 5 matches: Brighton 2-1 Brentford (A) Premier League Brentford 3-1 Burnley (H) Premier League Arsenal 2-0 Brentford (A) Premier League Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 Brentford (A) Premier League Brentford 1-1 Leeds (H) Premier League

Better form than Wolves, but still not amazing form for Brentford. The main issue they have found is the fact they have struggled when not playing at home. They have lost their last 3 away games, and this will worry them as they play Wolves away. With their current away form, it wouldn’t be a shock for Wolves to get their first win of the season. In the last 3 away matches they have only managed to score a single goal and conceded 6, the main positive they can take from this is that two of the teams they played are the classic big 6 and Brighton is one of the higher scores in the league something Wolves isn’t.

Key Players to Watch: Wolves vs Brentford

Joao Gomes (Wolves): One of the better players this season for Wolves, Gomes has been solid in the middle. With some of the best possession stats in the league with 12 successful dribbles and 21 fouls won, he is a very strong player at getting the ball away and taking pressure off the team. Adding onto this his defence quality with 39 tackles and 85 duels won, you can see why he is one of their best players and someone they need at the top of their game to get a result.

Igor Thiago (Brentford): Yet another Brazilian but this time the Premier League player of the month. He has been on fire this season with 11 goals in 16 matches and will be hoping that this game against Wolves can add at least one more if not more to his tally. The striker has failed to net in the last 3 matches and will be determined to change that this game so expect him to be very involved in the action.
