Overview
Brentford's form has been relatively stable recently. In their last 5 matches in all competitions, they have won 3, drawn 1 and lost only 1.
Before round 13 of the Premier League, coach Thomas Frank's team ranked 11th and was one of the best scoring clubs in the tournament. The Gtech Community team had 22 goals, the third highest in the tournament (only behind Liverpool and Chelsea).
At home, Brentford are in impressive form recently with a 9-match unbeaten streak in all competitions, including 7 wins and 2 draws.
Meanwhile, Leicester are in a crisis of form. In the match last weekend, they lost 1-2 to Chelsea, thereby extending their winless streak to 5 matches (lost 4, drew 1).
After round 12 of the Premier League, Leicester is only 1 point above the "red light" group. A series of bad results above has caused the "Foxes" leadership to decide to fire coach Steve Cooper.
Since 2020, Brentford and Leicester have faced each other a total of 6 times in all competitions. During this time, Brentford have failed to beat their opponents, scoring 6 goals, an average of 1 goal per game. Meanwhile, Leicester have won 4 times, scoring 11 goals, an average of 1.8 goals per game. The two teams have drawn 2 times.
In the last 5 matches, Leicester are unbeaten against Brentford (3 wins, 2 draws).
Human resources situation
Not only are they in better form, Brentford also received good news when Christian Norgaard had his red card against Everton overturned. Meanwhile, Gustavo Nunes and Ajer are likely to return from injury.
Facundo Buonanotte is expected to return to the Leicester squad after serving a one-match suspension, but Harry Winks remains a doubt after limping off against Chelsea.
Expected lineup:
Brentford: Flekken, Van den Berg, Collins, Pinnock, Lewis-Potter, Norgaard, Janelt, Damsgaard, Mbeumo, Wissa, Damsgaard.
Leicester: Hermansen, Justin, Faes, Okoli, Kristiansen, Soumare, Skipp, Ndidi, Buonanotte, Ayew, Vardy.
The match between Brentford and Leicester takes place at 22:00 on November 30 (Vietnam time).
