Brentford preview: Buzzing for Europe
Brentford come into this one on the back of succumbing to a penalty shootout defeat to West Ham United in the fifth round of the FA Cup last weekend but it may well aid them in narrowing their focus on securing European qualification in the Premier League.
The Bees, with Keith Andrews at the helm, most recently shared a goalless draw with AFC Bournemouth as they begin the weekend sitting tucked inside the top seven and just four points behind fifth and the likely UEFA Champions League spot.
Wolves preview: Showing fight
Wolverhampton Wanderers are destined for a return to the Championship but Rob Edwards is earning some credit ahead of the second-tier campaign as they head into this one on the back of back-to-back victories.
Having defeated Aston Villa by two goals to nil, Wolves then pulled off a last-gasp victory against Liverpool at Molineux, a few days before losing 3-1 to the Reds in the FA Cup last weekend.

Brentford vs Wolves prediction
Wolves have suffered just one defeat in their last five matches in the Premier League, having played half of the top six in that run of form. They remain well adrift of safety at the bottom-of-the-table. With their home advantage, Brentford will be expected to come out on top but it may not be straightforward and both teams scoring seems a good bet for this one at the Gtech Community Stadium, albeit with the result still favouring the hosts.
