Prediction: 2-2
Chelsea
There will be fireworks when Brentford and Chelsea go head to head at Brentford Community Stadium on day 8 of the new Premier League campaign. The Bees made a promising start to the season, and, as a result, they sit in 7th place in the standings ahead of the local derby. Brentford did well to beat West Ham on the road before the international break, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the visit of Chelsea.
Both Sorensen and Dasilva remain in the recovery room, while a man to watch in the home team will be Bryan Mbuemo, who has been in a fine form at the start of the season. The Blues, on the other hand, aim to retain top position in the standings. Since Romelu Lukaku is likely be fit to face the newcomers, both teams to score betting option should be considered. N’Golo Kante returns to contention as well, while Reece James is a major doubt.
Highlighted Player (Saïd Benrahma):
Said Benrahma is an Algeria international who started his club career at Nice. The pacey winger made his Ligue 1 debut during the 2013/2014 season and after scoring 3 goals in 17 appearances for les Aiglons in the French top flight, he moved to the Championship team Brentford in the summer of 2018.
Said Benrahma was born in Ain Temouchent, Algeria on August 10, 1995 and it has to be noted that he played for the likes of Angers, Gazelec Ajaccio and Chateauroux on loan before joining the Griffin Park outfit. The Algerian footballer impressed in the 2018/2019 Championship season, scoring 10 goals and providing 15 assists for his teammates.
His main position is right winger, but he is used as a left winger as well. Speaking of his international career, Said Benrahma made his debut for the Algeria national team on October 13, 2015 in a 1-0 win over Senegal.
Highlighted Team (Chelsea):
Over the years Chelsea have established themselves as one of the dominant forces in the English Premier League. Roberto Di Matteo helped the team win their first ever Champions League trophy (2011/2012), but it has to be noted that they were more than fortunate to beat Bayern Munich in the title game.
Chelsea have been playing at Stamford Bridge since 1876 and they are a real force to be reckoned with at home. The Blues have won seven FA Cups, five League Cups, two UEFA Cup Winners’ Cups and the UEFA Europa League. Rafael Benitez was in charge of the team that faced Benfica in the 2012/2013 Europa League final, with Branislav Ivanovic scoring the winner for the Blues in the title clash.
After lifting the 2014/2015 Premier League trophy, the Blues largely struggled in the next campaign, which saw Jose Mourinho’s second spell with the club come to an end, and Antoine Conte went over to take the reigns for the 2016/2017 season.
