Brentford

In the match against the Merseysiders, Thomas Frank's team kept a clean sheet for the first time in this competition and failed to score for the second time.

- The club has not lost a first half at home in the Premier League (4 wins and 2 draws).
Leicester
Leicester suffered a 1-2 defeat at home to Chelsea in the last round. This was their third loss in the last four Premier League matches (alongside a draw with Ipswich – 1-1). This winless streak led to the dismissal of head coach Steve Cooper. The team has dropped to 16th place, and the relegation zone is now just one point away. Notably, Leicester has conceded 23 goals, with only two teams in the league having worse defensive records.
- In their last 12 Premier League matches, Leicester has won only twice (4 draws and 6 losses).

Brentford vs. Leicester: Match Prediction
The visitors are in poor form, have lost their manager, and are gradually falling into the relegation zone. The hosts should capitalize on this, as they are impressive at home despite not always showing consistent form. In the current season, Brentford has played six home matches, winning five and drawing one. In terms of home performances, the Londoners are leading the Premier League. It is also worth noting that they score an average of 3 goals per game at their stadium this season.
Leicester has collected only five points away in the Premier League 2024/25 season. Their only win was against the league's clear underdog, Southampton. Overall, the club has been showing weak away results – in the last 14 Premier League away games, they have failed to win 13 times (5 draws and 8 losses). Moreover, Leicester has conceded at least two goals in 12 of their last 17 away Premier League matches.
My prediction – Brentford to win
