The Premier League continues this weekend with a fixture between two sides in a relegation six-pointer. For today’s betting tip, we are focusing on the crucial fixture between Brentford and Newcastle United at the Brentford Community Stadium.
Brentford had an impressive start to their Premier League campaign. From beating Arsenal on the opening day to drawing with Liverpool in September, Thomas Frank’s side were the surprise package early in the season. However, the newly-promoted Brentford are slipping towards the drop zone, making the game versus Newcastle a true six-pointer.
For this Saturday’s game, Ivan Toney may be fit enough to return. The star striker has been absent with a lower leg injury, but his return may spark an upturn in form for the Bees.
Whilst Brentford are trending downwards, Newcastle United are on an upwards trajectory in the Premier League. Eddie Howe’s team continued their unbeaten run with a draw at West Ham United, and a win against Brentford could see the Magpies leapfrog their opponents.
Allan Saint-Maximin could be in-line to return against Brentford on Saturday. The tricky Frenchmen was absent against West Ham United, but he should be fit enough to feature in the Brentford game.
Both these sides need a win on Saturday to ease their relegation fears. A win for Newcastle United and Eddie Howe’s side could leapfrog their London opponents and create a seven-point gap above the bottom three. As for Brentford, they need a win to counteract their declining form and create a nine-point buffer.
The fans will be hoping this game can be like the reverse fixture. These two played out a thrilling 3-3 encounter at St. James’ Park. This game was Eddie Howe’s first game on the sideline ,and he’ll hope to go one better in the reverse fixture.
We are suggesting to go with the form on this one. Newcastle United are on an impressive run, whilst Brentford haven’t won in the league since the 2nd of January against Aston Villa. Therefore, we suggest a double chance of Newcastle or draw and BTTS with Unibet at 33/20.
