Head to head history:
Since 2013, Wolves and Brentford have met 18 times, with Wolves winning nine games and Brentford winning just five. Although Wolves’ recent form has been inconsistent, with two wins, one draw and two losses in their last five games, they have still managed to score an average of 1.2 goals per game.
Remarkably, Wolves have overshot their predicted goals tally in 40% of their games, showing they have the potential to cause a surprise.
Despite conceding a lot of goals (2.2 per game), the ability to score more than expected still gives fans hope of a comeback in the upcoming matches. Wolves' consistency and determination to improve their defense could be the key to getting back on track.
Brentford's poor start: Ineffective attack and heavy injuries
Brentford have had a mixed start to September. Despite high expectations after recent seasons, the Bees have yet to find consistent form. A 0-2 defeat to Liverpool and a disappointing 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace showed that the team is struggling to maintain solidity in defence and effectiveness in attack.
The absence of some key players due to injury has made it even more difficult for Brentford in the recent period.
Despite maintaining their pressing style, Brentford’s ability to convert chances into goals is a major weakness, and injuries to key players add to the challenge. This will need to improve if they are to get any points against Wolves.
