Sutton’s predictions: Southampton v Brentford

Chris Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League games this season, against a variety of guests.

For week 20, he takes on The Zutons frontman Dave McCabe, who supports Liverpool.

Sutton’s prediction: 1-2

This is a tough one to call because while Southampton are adrift at the bottom and absolutely desperate for points, Brentford are not in great form either.

Saints’ new boss Ivan Juric has been quite feisty since his appointment, and his side have only been narrowly beaten in both his games in charge.

It is noticeable how often Southampton like to lump it now under Juric, compared with their possession-based style of play under Russell Martin.

However, while it is also clear they will put up a fight I don’t see much changing for them results-wise.

Brentford are a battle-hardened Premier League team, so a direct approach will not faze them, and they also have goals in their team.

The Bees are yet to win on the road this season and only picked up their first away point against Brighton last time out but, this time, I see them taking all three.

McCabe’s prediction: 1-2

Brentford all day.

As Southampton gear up to face Brentford in their upcoming match, here are my predictions for the game:

1. Southampton’s recent form has been inconsistent, but they have shown flashes of brilliance. I predict that they will come out strong and dominate possession in the midfield.

2. Brentford, on the other hand, have been a surprise package this season and have shown their attacking prowess. I expect them to put up a strong fight and create some goal-scoring opportunities.

3. In terms of the final score, I predict that Southampton will edge out Brentford with a 2-1 victory. Southampton’s experience and home advantage will give them the upper hand in this match.

Overall, I believe it will be an exciting and closely contested game between these two teams. Let’s see if my predictions come true! #Southampton #Brentford #PremierLeaguepredictions
