Brentford is coming into this match with a trend to the over in their recent Premier League matches. They have gone over 2.5 goals in 3 of their 5 Premier League matches this season and they have had a very strong attack in those. They have scored at least 2 goals or more in 3 of their 5 matches and have been averaging close to 2 goals scored per match this season. They have also had a very shaky defense though as they have allowed 3 goals in their last 2 matches. They are going up against an Everton side that has also been trending to the over in their recent matches. They have gone over 2.5 goals in 2 of their last 3 matches but they have also been awful in their league matches this year. They have lost 4 of their 5 matches with no wins in that span but their attack has been much better recently as they have scored 4 goals in their last 3 matches including their cup match in the EFL Cup. They have also scored at least 2 goals in 2 of their last 3 matches and after playing much better in their last 3 matches, winning 2-1 in the EFL Cup against Doncaster, drawing Sheffield United away from home 2-2, and losing at home 1-0 to Arsenal, they are going to be very hungry to find 3 points from this match. Everton has also had a very bad defense in their matches though as they have allowed 9 goals in their 5 matches this year and Brentford does have a very potent attack that will score goals at home. Everton needs a win badly though and they are going to fight for points here which means pushing their attack for goals as this Brentford defense has not been great this season either. Between these two sides, there will be enough goals in this match to push it over 2.5 goals.
