Brentford vs Everton Prediction and Betting Tips | August 27, 2022
Brentford will entertain 17th-placed Everton at the Brentford Community Stadium in the Premier League on Saturday.
The hosts were unable to build on their impressive 4-0 win over Manchester United, as they fell to a 3-2 defeat at Fulham. Brentford conceded two early goals against their local rivals but pulled things level, thanks to strikes from Ivan Toney and Christian Norgaard. However, they were undone by a 90th-minute winner from the in-form Aleksandar Mitrovic.
Everton, meanwhile, arrested two-game losing streak with a 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest. They looked poised for a third defeat when Brennan Johnson gave Nottingham an 81st-minute lead. However, Demarai Gray equalised two minutes from time to force a share of the spoils.

Brentford vs Everton Prediction
Brentford have held their own in their recent home games and are favourites to win this one, having won three games in a row against the Toffees at home. Everton are in search of their first win but are expected to struggle here.
Everton are yet to find their shooting boots this season, which could be their undoing here. Brentford should secure a narrow win.
