Brentford vs Arsenal 13.08.2021
Years of playoff disappointments finally turned to joy and celebration when Brentford defeated Swansea 2-0 n the Playoff final at the tail end of last season. They now have the honor of hosting their first-ever Premier League game in the first match of the 2021/22 season.
Arsenal have been mediocre in the last two seasons which they finished in 8th place and there is agitation and pressure from their supporters who want to see them back in the hunt for top honors. With no European football distraction this time, pundits expect a strong performance from the Gunners this term.
Brentford’s home form was a huge component of their success last season. This is however a big ask of them on the biggest stage they have been in. They may take a bit of time to settle. We are therefore backing the Gunners to pick up the win here and at least 2 goals to be scored in the match.
