Brentford is coming into this match playing in much better form in their recent matches. They were in awful form for a while but recently they have been better as they have drawn their last 3 straight matches. They are coming off of a 3-3 draw away from home against Aston Villa in their last match and this will be a good opportunity for them to have a get right match at home against one of the weakest teams in the league this season, now that Brentford has been gaining more confidence as well. They are going up against a Sheffield United side that has not been in bad form recently as they have drawn 3 of their last 4 matches, but they still do not have a win in their last 7 matches. Their defense has also been awful in those as they have allowed at least 2 goals in each of their last 5 as well as 6 of their last 7 matches. When playing away from home, they have been much worse as they have lost 2 of their last 3 as well as 3 of their last 5 matches. Brentford has not been in good form in their recent matches but they have been much better against stronger competition in their last few matches and they have a lot more talent on their side to deal with an opponent like Sheffield Utd who will surely be seeing relegation come the end of the season. Brentford has too much attacking power for Sheffield to keep them out and Brentford has a much better defense that will not concede as much against this Sheffield attack. Brentford will win this match at home by 2 or more goals, take Brentford -1.5 here.
England Premier League: Brentford -1.5, Rot. 200102
