Bournemouth v Brentford: Free Tips, Prediction and Odds

Brentford will be looking to continue their recent away resurgence when they make the trip to the Vitality Stadium to take on Bournemouth in the Premier League on Saturday.

The Bees are on a roll on their travels, winning their last four matches, so they will fancy their chances of overcoming a Cherries side stumbling in their pursuit of European football.

Brentford to win - 10/3

It has been quite the Jekyll and Hyde performance for Brentford when it comes to away form this season, with the Bees losing seven and drawing one of their first eight road matches in the league.

Seemingly unable to find a solution to these away woes, something has clicked for Thomas Frank's side since the turn of the year and they are now unbeaten in their last five matches.

A 0-0 draw against free-scoring Brighton has been followed by four successive wins, beating Southampton (5-0), Crystal Palace (2-1), West Ham (1-0) and Leicester City (4-0).

This upturn in away form has helped the Londoners climb up the standings into 12th position ahead of this weekend's fixtures, six points behind the Cherries in eighth, so a potential push for a European finish is not out of the equation for the Bees.

Bournemouth are right in the mix for a UEFA Champions League finish, as they sit three points behind fifth-placed Manchester City, but the pressure has been telling of late with no win in their last three top-flight games.

Andoni Iraola's troops lost to Wolves and Brighton before letting a two-goal lead slip at Tottenham last time out and the Cherries need to snap this run of results if they are to start moving up the table.

Home form has been an issue for Bournemouth, who lost back-to-back matches against Liverpool (2-0) and Wolves (1-0) before then requiring penalties to see off the men from Molineux in the FA Cup.

Brentford are unbeaten in their last six meetings against the Cherries, winning four and drawing two, and they can continue this surge in away form by racking up another three points.

Yoane Wissa anytime goalscorer - 5/2

DR Congo international Yoane Wissa has been in superb form for Brentford this season, notching 14 times in all competitions and sitting just one behind Bryan Mbeumo in the club's goalscoring charts.

The 28-year-old has netted in two of his last three appearances, while he has also found the back of the net in two of the Bees' last four away fixtures.

Wissa appears to be high on confidence at a crucial time of the campaign and he has fond memories of playing Bournemouth, having bagged a brace in November's reverse fixture and scoring once in last season's meeting at the Vitality Stadium.

Vitaly Janelt to commit over 0.5 fouls - 1/2

While Brentford are expected to get the win, they may not have everything their own way on the south coast and they will likely have a fair bit of defending to do.

Bournemouth like to get forward, evidenced by the fact they have failed to score in just two of their last 13 matches in all competitions, and they have some tricky players in the shape of Antoine Semenyo and Justin Kluivert.

The Cherries are winning an average of 13.44 fouls per game in all competitions this term and it would be no surprise to see Bees midfielder Vitaly Janelt get pulled up by the referee.

The German committed two fouls last time out against Aston Villa and he has made at least one foul in six of his last eight appearances in the league.

In what promises to be an open contest, Janelt could be forced to make a few rash challenges and the price on him to make one foul is hard to ignore.
