Predictions & Tips
Form Guide
Brentford
DDLWL
Keith Andrews' Brentford, 8th on 51 points, arrive this fixture with the motivation of a club still pushing for European qualification, which would represent a landmark achievement for a side whose budget and resources are a fraction of their rivals. Their 3-0 win over West Ham was emphatic and at the GTech, one of the Premier League's most hostile compact venues, they carry genuine home advantage. As such, they'll be looking to bounce back from latest defeat on the road to Pep Guardiola’s City in Manchester.
Crystal Palace
WLWDL
Oliver Glasner's Palace, 15th on 44 points, arrive this fixture with their minds clearly on the Conference League final in Leipzig on May 27 against Strasbourg. That is the greatest night in the south London club's modern history and the squad's energy is inevitably already devoted to their European mission. Their most recent league results which has seen no victory in five games reflects the natural consequence of a Club managing their energy ahead of a final. Away at the GTech, always a demanding visit, they face a Brentford side with far more to play for domestically.
Prediction
Brentford's home advantage, their superior domestic motivation and Palace's divided attention ahead of the Conference League final gives the Bees the slight edge as favourites in this Sunday afternoon encounter.
