The Brentford team will challenge the Arsenal team in a 3e ronde EFL Carabao Cup in Gtech Community Stadium Stadium, Middlesex on Wednesday, September 27, 2023. For streaming coverage of Brentford vs Arsenal, preview and how to watch it, see in this article.
Arsenal is in very good form. They have not lost in the last seven matches, with five wins. In yesterday’s North London Derby, the Gunners also continued to lead over Tottenham, although it was a shame they had to settle for a 2-2 draw.
The Gunners are also not afraid of playing at their opponent’s home ground. They have won three times in a row on the road, and have not conceded at all in those three matches. Therefore, they don’t need to worry when they have to visit Brentford’s Gtech Community stadium.
History is also on Arsenal’s side. According to statistics, in the last eight meetings, Arsenal only lost once, the remaining two draws and five wins. Among them, they beat Brentford 3-1 in the League Cup in September 2018.
Brentford is actually playing very badly. They only got one win in the last 12 matches. The main cause is a very weak defense, making them unable to keep the goal in six of the last seven matches. With this weak defense, Brentford will have difficulty facing Arsenal’s attacks.
Home is also not an advantage for Brentford. They are winless in the last five home matches. Among them, the last match at the Gtech Community stadium, they lost 1-3 to Everton.
In tonight’s duel, Brentford only lost one important player. He is Ivan Toney’s mainstay striker who was suspended for his involvement in gambling. Meanwhile, Arsenal also lost many pillars due to injuries. Apart from Thomas Partey, Gabriel Martinelli, Jurrien Timber, they also couldn’t play Declan Rice and Leandro Trossard.
Coach Mikel Arteta had to change several positions in the squad due to injuries. One of the interesting things is whether new goalkeeper David Raya will play or not. The Spanish goalkeeper left Brentford to join Arsenal on loan for 3 million pounds. Arsenal can buy him permanently if they pay an additional 27 million pounds when the season ends.
According to Premier League rules, loan players cannot play against their original clubs. But Brentford have agreed to let Raya play for Arsenal in this match according to talkSPORT. Raya has played in the last two games for Arsenal, and perhaps he will gain Arteta’s trust in the game against his old club.
The various factors above show that Arsenal are no longer weak in away games. Coach Mikel Arteta’s young players have matured. It is predicted that the visiting team will win this match, according to Gary Neville (Sky Sports commentator).
