Overview
Since the beginning of the 2024-2025 season, Wolves have been in very bad form, winning only 1 point after 6 rounds in the Premier League.
After parting with a series of key players this summer but without adequate additions, they are strong candidates for relegation.
Wolves' dark days promise to not stop when they have to visit Brentford in the next round.
Brentford is a team with a relatively heavy schedule in the early stages when they have met Liverpool, Man City and Tottenham. However, the home team at Gtech Community still has a pretty good record with 2 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses.
Apart from the teams that are completely stronger, Brentford have had good results against equal or weaker opponents. That is the foundation for their confidence when they only have to welcome Wolves at home.
With poor form since the start of the season, having to play away from home seems to be a nightmare for Wolves. Meanwhile, Brentford have won 7/9 maximum points in their recent home matches at Gtech Community.
With the difference in form between the two teams, Brentford is expected to not have much difficulty extending their winning streak at home.
However, it is worth noting that Wolves have a good record against Brentford in recent years, winning seven of the last 12 meetings between the two teams and losing just two.
The two sides met four times in all competitions last season, with Brentford's only win coming away at Molineux. Wolves are unbeaten in their last six visits to Brentford.
Human resources situation
Brentford are doubts over Mathias Jensen and Christian Norgaard after both missed last week's draw with West Ham.
On the other side of the front line, Wolves lost many pillars, including Yerson Mosquera, Boubacar Traore, Bastien Meupiyou, Enso Gonzalez and Sasa Kalajdzic. Meanwhile, Craig Dawson and Santiago Bueno are open to playing.
Expected lineup:
Brentford: Flekken, Ajer, Pinnock, Collins, Van den Berg, Carvalho, Janelt, Damsgaard, Lewis-Potter, Mbeumo, Schade.
Wolves: Johnstone, Semedo, T. Gomes, Dawson, Ait-Nouri, Andre, J. Gomes, Lemina, Cunha, Bellegarde, Larsen.
The match between Brentford and Wolves takes place at 9:00 p.m. on October 5 (Vietnam time).
