Brentford will be looking to maintain their unbeaten start to the Premier League campaign when they take on Chelsea in round 5. The Bees shared the spoils in a thrilling 2-2 draw with Bournemouth at the weekend, although they were far from convincing defensively, producing just 0.50 xG while allowing their opponents 10 shots on target. Kevin Schade will be the man to watch after scoring a brace in that game. Brentford have scored an impressive 2.90 goals per game across their last 10 matches, while Dasilva, Van den Berg, and Jensen remain sidelined.
Chelsea, meanwhile, struggled at the back in a 2-2 draw with Hull City in the cup. Malo Gusto has recovered from a minor injury, but Caicedo, Emegha, and Henderson remain in the treatment room. Joao Pedro has been in excellent scoring form, but the Brazil international is doubtful for the local derby. Chelsea have won 60% of their last 10 matches, averaging 2.70 goals per game, although they have conceded 1.70. Their away games have been particularly open, with BTTS landing in all three of their recent away fixtures.
Brentford's last 10 matches average 4.00 goals, while Chelsea's average is an even higher 4.40. Therefore, Over 2.5 goals betting option should be considered, alongside BTTS and Over 3.5 yellow cards (local derby).
This Premier League match will be played on Friday 18 September 2026 at 20:00.
