In the upcoming match between Newcastle United and Brentford, both teams have shown vulnerabilities in their defense, with worrying averages of goals conceded both at home and away. Newcastle United, the home team, has been especially leaky in defense at home, making them vulnerable to their opposition. On the other hand, Brentford, the away team, has struggled to keep a clean sheet on their travels, which could give the advantage to the home team.
In terms of current form, the away team seems to be the favorite, as they have been performing well in recent matches. However, the home team's historical record against Brentford suggests that they may have the upper hand in this fixture. With four wins in their last encounters, Newcastle United will be looking to continue their dominance against their opponents.
Both teams have been able to secure three points in their last matches, showing that they are in good shape. However, playing away from home will be a challenge for Brentford, as they will be facing a tough opponent in Newcastle United. The team coached by Thomas Frank usually performs well on the road, but they will need to be at their best to overcome their opponents in this match.
In terms of goal-scoring, both teams have been relatively prolific this season, with Newcastle United averaging 1.6 goals per game and Brentford averaging 1.7 goals per game. This suggests that we can expect an exciting and high-scoring match between the two teams, with both sides likely to find the back of the net.
