Brentford Form
Newcastle Form
Sunday’s Premier League clash at the Gtech Community Stadium sees Brentford take on Newcastle United, and it’s shaping up to be a lively one. Both teams come into this match looking to bounce back from recent defeats, so you can expect an intense battle right from the first whistle. Here’s everything you need to know — including our Brentford vs Newcastle prediction, team news, likely lineups, and betting insights.
Brentford
Keith Andrews has the luxury of working with a fully fit squad, which is a rare blessing at this stage of the season. The Bees were left frustrated after their 2-0 loss to Crystal Palace despite dominating possession (64%) and creating good chances. Nathan Collins was unlucky to see his own goal hand Palace the lead, while the team struggled to convert in front of goal.
However, Brentford have shown they can score freely — 13 goals in their last six matches — and their attacking flow at home remains strong. Andrews is likely to stick with his familiar 4-2-3-1 setup, keeping the emphasis on width and pace through the flanks.
Newcastle United
Eddie Howe also heads into this game without injury concerns. That’s a big boost for Newcastle, who will be desperate to shake off a frustrating 3-2 defeat to West Ham United. Despite goals from Jacob Murphy and an unfortunate Sven Botman own goal, they conceded twice late on — including Tomáš Souček’s stoppage-time winner.
Newcastle’s recent trend shows goals at both ends — 11 scored and 6 conceded in their past six games. But there’s a worrying stat: they haven’t won away in their last eight league outings. Howe will want to end that streak fast.
Brentford (4-2-3-1)
Caoimhin Kelleher; Michael Kayode, Nathan Collins, Sepp van den Berg, Kristoffer Ajer; Yegor Yarmolyuk, Jordan Henderson; Dango Ouattara, Mikkel Damsgaard, Kevin Schade; Igor Thiago.
Newcastle United (4-3-3)
Nick Pope; Emil Krafth, Malick Thiaw, Sven Botman, Dan Burn; Bruno Guimarães, Sandro Tonali, Joelinton; Jacob Murphy, Nick Woltemade, Anthony Gordon.
If you’re looking at form, this one’s hard to call. Brentford are usually strong at home — they play fast, attacking football and rarely get dominated in London. Newcastle, on the other hand, have struggled away from home but still carry plenty of attacking bite.
You might expect both teams to create chances. Newcastle’s forward trio of Murphy, Woltemade, and Gordon has pace and directness, while Brentford rely on Damsgaard and Schade to stretch play and find Igor Thiago inside the box.
A safe angle? Expect a competitive game with plenty of action in midfield. Brentford’s energy could make life uncomfortable for Newcastle, especially with Henderson anchoring the side.
Well, here’s where things get interesting. Brentford’s recent home form — including that thrilling win over Liverpool — gives them confidence, but Newcastle’s quality can’t be underestimated. Howe’s side know how to respond, and their midfield trio of Tonali, Guimarães, and Joelinton is capable of dictating play.
Still, the Magpies’ away drought looms large, and Brentford’s confidence in front of their fans might be the difference.
Match Prediction: Draw. Bet with bet365.
If you’re chasing a correct score prediction, 2-2 feels like the most realistic outcome. Brentford’s attack should find a way through, but Newcastle have enough firepower to hit back. Both sides are evenly matched in current form, and a draw would be fair.
Correct Score Prediction: Brentford 2 – 2 Newcastle United. Bet with bet365.
Looking at recent trends:
That suggests we might get goals here. Still, with both sides needing a result, you could see a tighter first half before the match opens up.
Recommended pick: Over 2.5 goals — but don’t rule out a tense draw.
Over/Under Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals. Bet with bet365.
