Brentford and Sunderland square off against each other at the Brentford Community Stadium in a clash between two sides who have made encouraging starts to the Premier League season. The Bees were held to a 1-1 draw by Leeds United last time out, but they remain unbeaten in their last six matches in all competitions. Brentford were particularly impressive in their first home league game, cruising to a 3-0 victory over Tottenham. They have also won 75% of their last 10 home matches, scoring an impressive 3.75 goals per game. Antoni Milambo and Sepp van den Berg remain sidelined through injury.
Sunderland, meanwhile, quickly bounced back from their 2-1 defeat to Ipswich by edging Fulham 1-0, with Wilson Isidor scoring the winner. The striker could therefore earn a starting berth, while new signing Malick Fofana could make his debut. The Black Cats had 2.02 xG against Fulham, suggesting they created enough chances to deserve their victory. Sunderland have also won 60% of their last 10 away games, scoring 2.60 goals per match.
As Brentford have turned their stadium into a real fortress and boast a stronger attacking record, Home Win is our main betting tip for this Premier League matchup, alongside Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals (Brentford’s home games average 4.25 goals, while Sunderland’s away matches average 4.20).
This Premier League match will be played on Saturday 5 September 2026 at 15:00.
