Tip and bets

2Brentford with a handicap (-1.5)

Brentford not only have the advantage of class today, but also the important factor of their home arena. Since the beginning of the season, the Londoners have not suffered a single defeat on their home field, winning five out of six matches. Sheffield Wednesday, even by Championship standards, is far from being in the leading roles now, and their current form is not showing anything outstanding either. We think that the Bees' successful home series will continue following the results of the upcoming match.

Our prediction is a Brentford win with an Asian handicap (-1.5) at odds of 2.00

1.6total over 2.5 goals

Bet on total

At home, Brentford regularly rely on attack and play very boldly. In five of the six matches played at home with the participation of the "bees", at least three goals were scored. We think that the guests will have no choice but to accept the conditions of the opponent game today.

The second bet is total over 2.5 goals with odds of 1.60

Bet on the first half

It should be noted that in three of the last four matches Brentford won at the end of the first half. It is clear that today the Bees will try to immediately show their advantage, and we think they will succeed.

Prediction: Brentford win in the first half with odds of 1.77
