Brentford preview: Overperforming Bees
Brentford, following a very busy summer that suggested to many that they would struggle, begin the weekend sitting tucked inside the middle-of-the-table but they can be dragged towards the bottom three with a defeat this weekend.
The Bees have suffered three defeats in their last four matches as they head into this one on the back of back-to-back 2-0 defeats in north London against Arsenal and then against Tottenham Hotspur.
Leeds preview: Showing fight
Daniel Farke was reportedly under pressure despite promotion last season but Leeds United stuck by the former Norwich City boss and they have been rewarded by being more competitive than many would have expected in the summer.
Their recent run of improved form began with coming from 2-0 down to 2-2 before losing against Manchester City before then dispatching of Chelsea at Elland Road and then again producing a comeback to share a 3-3 draw with Liverpool in West Yorkshire.

Brentford vs Leeds prediction
Leeds have scored seven goals in three matches against three of the so-called ‘big six’ in the Premier League but there is a feeling that they struggle in more ‘run of the mill’ games against some of the middling opposition in the top-flight, such as Brentford. As a result, especially with Keith Andrews’ side having been very strong at home this season, siding with a home win would appear a good bet for this one in the capital city.
