Welcome to Extratips: Crystal Palace vs Brentford – Premier League Prediction
Crystal Palace host Brentford at Selhurst Park on November 1st, kicking off at 15:00. Palace come in with 6 points, holding 9th place, while Brentford have 4 points and sit 12th. Recent seasons show these sides often draw, with their last five meetings finishing: Palace 1-2 Brentford (Jan 2025), Brentford 2-1 Palace (Aug 2024), Palace 3-1 Brentford (Dec 2023), plus two earlier tight matches.
Palace have been tough at home, losing only once in their last five, while Brentford have struggled away, winning just once in their last five outings. Palace’s main strengths are solid defence, quick counter attacks, and a reliable midfield – but they struggle to convert chances, have few clean sheets, and lack consistency. Brentford’s strengths are their energy, dangerous wingers, and pressing, though their finishing, set-piece defence, and away form are weaknesses.
Key factors: Both teams are nearly full strength, but Brentford have been hit by minor knocks to key defenders. With both sides eager for points, watch for a tight contest with chances on both ends.
Interesting angles include Palace aiming to build momentum at home, Brentford seeking to bounce back, and a potential midfield battle that could decide the match. Expect both teams to go for goals, but Palace look best placed to edge it.
