Brentford welcome Manchester City to the Gtech Community Stadium on Sunday afternoon for an exciting Premier League encounter, with kick-off scheduled for 16:30 (UK time). The match will be officiated by Darren England and broadcast live on Sky Sports.
The Bees enter the weekend sitting 13th in the table, having collected seven points from their opening six fixtures. Their standout performance so far came in last weekendβs 3-1 victory over Manchester United, a timely boost after suffering back-to-back defeats.
Statistically, Brentfordβs numbers align with their mid-table position β their 7.88 expected points (xPTS) reflect their actual standing, while a non-penalty xG of 1.21 per match is balanced by a non-penalty xGA of 1.23. At home, Thomas Frankβs men remain unbeaten with two wins and one draw, continuing their reputation for causing problems for top Premier League sides.
However, their defensive inconsistencies persist, with the team conceding nine big chances so far β more than theyβve created β something theyβll need to tighten up against the reigning champions.
