Brentford Preview: Bees a buzzing

Brentford come into this one on the back of a 4-0 annihilation of relegation-bound Leicester City at the King Power Stadium in their most recent outing at the weekend thanks to goals from Yoane Wissa, Bryan Mbeumo, Christian Norgaard and Fabio Carvalho.

The Bees have been inconsistent throughout the campaign with 11 victories and 11 defeats in their 26 matches so far this season but they have always been entertaining with those 26 games consisting of 89 goals.

Everton Preview: Toffees left frustrated

Following the re-appointment of David Moyes, Everton have been much-improved, especially in an attacking sense, as they propel themselves away from the bottom three and the relegation places with four victories and two draws in their last six matches.

The Toffees will be a little frustrated to have been denied all three points against Manchester United at Goodison Park at the weekend with Everton 2-0 up after 75 minutes before sharing a 2-2 draw and then having a penalty award overturned by VAR in second-half stoppage-time.

Brentford Team News: Norgaard out with concussion

In his pre-match press conference, Thomas Frank has said he expects to have the 'same squad' as to the weekend for the visit of Everton, aside from the absence of Denmark international Christian Norgaard, who is following concussion protocols. He joins the likes of Sepp van den Berg and Mathias Jensen on the sidelines.

Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Flekken; Ajer, Collins, Pinnock, Lewis-Potter; Yarmolyuk, Janelt; Mbeumo, Damsgaard, Schade; Wissa

Unavailable: Van den Berg (Injured), Hickey (Injured), Henry (Injured), Norgaard (Concussion), Dasilva (Injured), Jensen (Injured), Nunes (Injured), Thiago (Injured)

Everton Team News: Iroegbunam & Lindstrom should be fine

Scotland international Nathan Patterson has returned to training on grass but the trip down to the capital is expected to still be too soon for his return. Both Tim Iroegbunam and Jesper Lindstrom were affected at the weekend by illness but appear to be over that and could be involved.

Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Pickford; O'Brien, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Garner, Gueye; Lindstrom, Doucoure, Harrison; Beto

Unavailable: Coleman (Injured), Mangala (Injured), McNeil (Injured), Ndiaye (Injured), Calvert-Lewin (Injured), Broja (Injured)

Questionable: Patterson (Fitness), Iroegbunam (Illness), Lindstrom (Illness), Chermiti (Fitness)

Brentford vs Everton Prediction

Brentford have been pragmatic and versatile ever since gaining promotion to the top-flight a few seasons ago and, after changing from their usual back three to a back four this year, they have become a little looser and more entertaining to watch. They face an Everton side that have scored 12 goals (41.38% of their goals this season) in their last six games (just 23.08% of their games so far). As a result, it could well be a good bet to expect a surprisingly entertaining encounter in west London.

Brentford vs Everton Tip: Both teams to score
